Leaking green ooze

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • 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.

    @serenjane My Kembe had the freckles on her neck - more pronounced in summer months w/ the sun and also as she aged. I use to call her my little 🦒 giraffe. 😂

    Had you opened a new bag around the time this started? Sometimes they change ingredients or suppliers of ingredients, which is the way an allergen can sneak in....

    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.

    @thunderbird8588: Thanks for the reminder Dan. We have a problem with blue algae at our local nature reserve and around Preston docks. Obviously we don't allow Malaika to go near and i try to discourage her from drinking any water other that what comes out of a tap. I know I have to keep Buddy pulled back from any standing water as he'll take a sip even though I carry bottled water for him on our walks. :rolleyes: You don't even want them to get their feet in it as then they'll lick the foot and may get sick.
