Thank you for submitting your question regarding Theo. I recommend that he sees a veterinarian. The blood and fluid could indicate leakage from an infected anal gland. He also could be experiencing diarrhea and unable to contain it. Finally, if he is struggling to urinate, there can be blood around the hind end. His veterinarian will examine him and depending on these findings may recommend fecal testing. From there, treatment options can be discussed. I hope this information helps!
