Leaking green ooze


  • sound gross?…it is....there is this light green goo coming from my basenjis right eye, and the day before it was coming out his....umm, manhood.

    well, he seems to be acting fine and it'll happen for like a hour and then go away for the rest of the day. it's not a ton, just enough to notice.....just wondering if you all have ever had this happen and if i should take him to the vet.

    if it helps, he did eat a whole nylabone...those little rubber ones with flavoring....my aunt said she thought they were digestable but i'm still worried...and he occasionally drink from the pool and it has chlorine in it....that's the only scary things he has digested that i thought might cause this....and he's 8 months old, if that helps too (i thought maybe reaching puberty or something)

    thanks for any advice


  • Green "goo" from his "manhood" is pretty normal and not to be worried about too much… from the eye... could be a number of thing and doubtful that they would be related.. and would not be related to a nylabone... I would keep and eye on the "eye"... could be allergies.. or something more... if it doesn't clear up in the next day or two, I would be off to the Vet


  • thank you…whew, i thought it coming out his penis was going to be something terrible.....i've been wiping his eye with a hot rag hoping that would help, you know, like when a baby has a plugged tear duct.

    Alway be careful of eyes… I would always rather be safe then sorry and have any eye problems checked out if it doesn't clear up in a couple of days.

    @elbrant said in Bordatella and Canine Influenza Vaccines: @Saving said in Bordatella and Canine Influenza Vaccines: divisive I guess I'm a dreamer.... but I believe that adults can have discussions and opinions without resorting to name calling and rude remarks. Your input is valuable. Thanks, because it's become a religion as soon as you speak against it people get so offended. The last 3 years has shown that quite clearly @Saving said in Bordatella and Canine Influenza Vaccines: Another friend's dog has a swollen leg at the vaccination site of his booster which is not resolving I"m sorry to hear about your friend's loss and understand the concern about the other friend's swollen leg. I had a similar experience, one of my dog's (not doodle) had a grossly swollen leg following a vet visit. The Vet told me it was cancer and I opted to let her go. Month's later I read online that it could have been the result of an allergic reaction. Please advise your friend to research possible answers before she makes a decision. Will do, a lot of the medication/vaccines cause inflammatory responses so it could just be that, it's still not nice for the dog to have that experience @Saving said in Bordatella and Canine Influenza Vaccines: dry food ... suffering from malnutrition omgosh! That is so scary!! I doubt the big manufacturers would ever allow a real study to see the light of day, but I would love to see one done. Just the thought makes me want to keep feeding my girl human grade foods. Yeah the same here, her research indicated that raw chicken wings were the optimal food and contain pretty much everything needed. I guess if you think of some of the processed crap they have in supermarkets trading as food for humans you can imagine how low the bar can go for pet food.

    Our 17 year old starting having problems with leaking last year. Almost every time she slept she would wake up with a small wet spot in her bed or on the couch. Since she sleeps in bed with us this became a huge problem - washing the sheets every day got old REAL fast…but we couldn't bear to throw her out of bed! After several tests to rule out various problems, her doctor put her on Proin twice a day, and the leakage has pretty much disappeared. I honestly can't remember the last time we had to clean up a puddle! The problem NOW is getting her to take the medication since she absolutely will not chew up the tablet. After struggling for weeks we finally tried crushing the tablet and mixing it with her food, and this has worked perfectly.
