I hope you mean 70 in dog years, you need to get your guy to the vet and see if he is OK mentally and physically. They may be able to give him some food that will stop this or tell you if he is losing his mind.
Either way, he is old and needs to see the vet.

first off it doesn't mean your dog is going to die!!!! he could have pooped a wood chip out sideways causing stretching of his anus and some blood my golden retriever would eat my car if it would fit in his mouth and about 6 thousand dollars later we have learned some home remedies to help if your dog eats something small and you see this in this case a little blood in the poop then grab a loaf of bread and some peanut butter and slop some on there and feed it to the dog. Feed him until he dosent want anymore this combination of bread and peanut butter causes as glue going through their system grabbing stuff s it goes to smoothly come out the other end don't freak out for anyone who reads this in the future these other people are a little melo dramatic. don't beat yourself up dogs will be dogs you cant protect them from everything just help them get it through and they will be fine trust me!!!!!!!!! They will tell you when they need vet help!!!

As dogs get older, They need a little more in their diet.
Puppy-3 meals a day
Healthy, Maturing-1 meal a day
Older(in your case)-2-3 meals a day
Oh- and get the bows out of the way first!

Your dog is 70 years old?
Evan, if he's eating christmas wrapping, etc. a simple solution would be to throw it away where he can't get at it.

He's looking for something missing in his diet. His body is telling him he needs an additional supplement but not knowing where to find it, he tries everything The vet could give him the once over and give him the right dose.

i hope you mean he is 70 in dog years! when my dog got that old, he became senile, and was walking around in circles. He got so bad that we had to put him to sleep. Maybe he is getting senile.
