It could be a sign of a foreign body in the nose or at the back of th throat (typically starts as an acute bout of sneezing and throat discomfort). It may be related to nasal cavity infection, mass or polyp in the nose, or even low platelet count. Please, take Teddy to your local vets without delay, as if left untreated, these kind of problems can lead to a severe nosebleed that may be difficult to stop.
