About a couple of weeks ago I found a purplish spot in my dog's bed. I checked her body for any wounds and fur for any dry blood, but didn't see anything. Today, I noticed a second spot in a different area of the bed with the same purplish color. I just checked her again, still not finding any markings of a cut or injury. I know she constantly licks her bed and so now I'm not sure if these are markings of her always licking her bed or if they are blood spots.
