My 6-month puppy has bleeding gums, eating less, sleeping more. Vet?

Question

My puppy she's 6 months old and she has some red like bleeding at the back of her gum/teeth. Her behavior she eats not quite a lot in the day and sleeps alot. Should she be taken to vet or the bleeding will stop by itself. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 12.3 lbs

If her appetite is decreased from this then I would have it checked. At her age she may be teething and loosing some baby teeth which can cause blood but puppies are also known for eating things they aren't supposed to and she may have injured her gums. If she is eating and acting fine, then you can monitor it for 24 hours to see if there are any changes.
