So I noticed that my dogs nose has been bleeding at first I thought it was that some one hit him so I kept him inside however I notice the bleeding through his nose started again so I immediately went online to check out what check out what could be the cause and through observation I came to the realisation that it was canine Ehrlichiosis as he also had spots on his under belly like similar symptom pictures and he has been having problems with ticks as well, what are the treatment options

I'm sorry up hear Entr is having issues. Bleeding from the nose can have multiple causes, including tick borne disease, clotting diseases (infectious or autoimmune), foreign material, toxin ingestion or a growth. I would recommend he be evaluated by his regular veterinarian as soon as possible, have any necessary testing done (bloodwork, X-rays) and determine the underlying cause for his bleeding so he can get started on treatment. If it is ehrlichia he would need to start antibiotics right away. Good luck!
