Hi there, I'm new to yorkie talk. my yorkies name is luigi he is turning 1 year old next month. last night as we were going to bed I saw he had some yellow-greenish pus coming out of his penis and its a bit swollen. hes been cleaning it &today he has less what should I do?

Hi and Welcome-

I have a male and I have never seen that with him. It doesn't sound normal- Maybe take him into the vet and get him checked out? Esp if it is swollen.

Thank you very much I will call my vet

That sounds about right! Yes i love him way to much he's acting normal but i shouldnt risk it!!

Is your boy neutered? I've never heard of this b4, so I googled it, apparently it's normal unless it smells bad & if any the discharge is a brown color, take him in to the vet asap. It also says to clean it w/hydrogen peroxide (the one in the brown bottle, it doesn't sting)...

But I would take mine in anyway to make sure it's not an infection, the swollen part would worry me.

That sounds painful So glad you're taking him to the vet. I hope it's nothing serious and he'll be better very soon

Welcome to YT, by the way!

Luigi is not neutered. The swelling is going down and the discharge is not as bad, i will clean him tonight. Do you think a penicillin shot will help if he has a uti? thank you

will he even let you do that?! I think a doggie antibiotic from your vet would be best. please take him in asap as it could be an infection & it can be more costly & painful for him...licking excessively is also a sign of pain.
