It could be a cut in the mouth or throat especially if he's been chewing wood, say branches or twigs or chicken bones.
Other than that if the blood is bright red, he may have a chest infection and needs vet a.s.a.p.
Or if the blood is very very dark, then that's undigested blood and it could be from a problem within his gut.
If you can't see anything obvious in the mouth and around the gums, then you need to take him to a vet pref. today.
Hope this helps.

go to a vet asap!
Coughing Blood: Why is my dog coughing up blood? Since we do not know the age of your dog or it's present health condition, we can only share information general to your question. However, after considering this information it is urgent that you seek prompt medical attention for your dog by a qualified veterinarian who can properly diagnose your dog's ailment. The dogs’ overall health history, potential exposure to poisons, and heartworm status will be very important to their assessment. Pulmonary vascular disease associated with arterial blood clots may result in the coughing of blood, a condition termed Hemoptysis, which is fairly uncommon. Dogs with hyperadrenocorticism, pancreatitis, immune mediated hemolytic anemia or heartworm disease are at increased risk for pulmonary thromboembolism that may cause bloody fluid or frank blood to exude into the airways. Dogs with lung cancer, systemic bleeding tendency, or severe inflammatory diseases may also cough up blood.
