Your dog probably has something in his gums that is sharp so its probably causing him to bleed in his mouth. The reason he chews on hard things such as wood and plastic is maybe because he thinks something strong will get it out if that's not it I can't think of any other problem....Maybe you should check his teeth if you don't see anything but he continues to chew get a vet to check his mouth.

My golden does the same thing although she is barely 4 years old. I'm sure its due to gum and teeth problems or just a natural sense of teething. My dog ate most of the wood she could get at in my house as a puppy.
