My dog pees like normal, but lately after emptying his bladder, he tries marking territory and just a couple drops of blood/pee come out. Is he straining to mark territory making this happen? His pee is not bloody or tinted and his behavior/eating has been nothing but normal.

This behavior can actually be a sign of a UTI or bladder stones. I'd have Monty seen by a vet for this for blood work and a urinalysis. Using these tests, the vet can diagnose if he has one of the things I mentioned above, and can treat him. I'd take him into a vet today. I hope this helps!
