This is a condition where your dog's own immune system is attacking his own body, in this case the thrombocytes specifically, causing bleeding. As the platelets get used up, the bleeding will worsen. He should be given an immune suppressant such as prednisone or immuran. It would be most helpful to bring him to a homeopathic veterinarian. Since this is usually associated with vaccinations, if your dog survives this, he should never be vaccinated again.
