It has to be food grade - not for gardening.

Will do Jen.  I just got home.  Link seems great and he was so excited to see me. I stooped down and he nuzzled under me and turned on his back and was wooing and now he's playful Smile

Incisions look great.  Apparently the green discharge was a brighter green, like crayon green.  And Patrick didn't actually see it in liquid form but it was a crust at the tip of his urethra , so it had been discharging earlier.  

Good news so far though, he had a normal poop, brown and firm, around 1 this afternoon so the vet's kibble seems to be out of his system by now, phew.  

Appointment about the green crust in a bit and I'll be in touch.

Thanks as well to Meredith and Erica for your feedback, much appreciated.

Yes, keep us updated, because sometimes my boys have that discharge thats green, and my vet always keeps telling me its nothing, so I hope its a normal alright thing, but if you get a different answer, let me know!

Hi Erica, aside from the update posted above about this case with Link I know it is common for males, especially sexually maturing teenage males, to discharge a yellow, greenish fluid that is essentially dog smegma from the penis. You should maybe look that up to see what it is in more detail. It happens in humans too, but mostly with uncircumcised males. In it is a lubricant type fluid that gathers in the sheath (the part we see externally) and will occasionally discharge out and it could very well be what's going on with your dogs, especially since your vet says it's nothing.

Hope that steers you in the right direction. Thanks for helping with Link Smile

Yeah, I just find its so weird that it happens in both of my neutered males still and thats what worries me. When we first noticed it, we took Nikolai back to the vet (he had an undescended testicle) it was after his neutering surgery, only to my surprise and right suspicions that he indeed was not fully neutered. Needless to say we do not go to that vet anymore, but its just odd to me that its still around after they have been fully neutered. But they don't lick it, and its just there some days more than others. I'm just such a worrier, because I never want to not catch something with my dogs, so anything I see, I automatically go crazy and just suspect the worse! Haha.

But i'm glad that Link is okay, and that it was just the food, and his poops are normal!

I don't know for sure that neutering will stop it from secreting because it's not produced by the testicles. In fact in humans at least females have it too and it can collect around the clitoris. Not sure about female dogs though.

In male dogs its function is to lubricated the sheath which should still be functioning properly after neutering, as far as I have read and heard from the vet yesterday.

Thanks for helping me out, and making me worry less about it! I just got that advice not to worry about it from the other vet who messed up the neutering, so needless to say I don't really trust him when he says its nothing to worry about.

Yeah, that is unfortunate that that happened, I'm sorry. Link too had an undescended testicle but everything turned out alright and went smoothly.

So what was the follow up like? Did he have to be reneutered?

Yes, he had to be re-neutered. Basically, the day we got there I thought my vet was doing the surgery but they passed it along to the owner of the practice without me knowing (and I am not a fan of this guy) but loved my vet at the place so we continued to go there. Without knowing where the testicle was, and not doing a sonogram like I wanted them to, they sliced Nikolai open looked everywhere, couldn't find it so he "snipped" what he THOUGHT was the blood flow to the testicle and told us it would just shrivel up and die and that we would have a neutered male. Recently after that, thank god I'm observant, I still noticed he was acting very much like he was in tact. So I called the vet and talked to the guy and he told me no, that could never happen and that he was neutered. In the meantime I took him to another vet to get a blood test done to see if there was testosterone in his system, and of course he had the exact amount of one still functioning. So after yelling at these people for cutting my dog open and it not be neutered, they offered to do it for free. But I didn't trust these people anymore what so ever, so we had it done at a different place and low and behold his testicle was exactly where it should have been it was just small. I just hate that they cut him open, it was completely unnecessary surgery, and they cut something that we still have no idea what it was.  So anything I see around his penis, freaks me out now! but luckily the second surgery went great, and he healed up nice and quick. As bad as the situation was though, we got out of it just as lucky as we could of in the end without another major surgery.

Whoa, Erica that sounds so intense, sorry. Even considering how minor a surgery neutering is it is still scarey and was for me very emotional going through it with Link, I can't imagine your fiasco. I would have been a mess.

I'm glad that it worked out well in the end for you and your dog.

yes, it definitely did. I know, you had it hard, I can't imagine leaving either one of mine any where away from me for 24 hours. I would be close to an emotional breakdown! hahaha. I've just never had for surgeries to or chosen to be away from mine just cause I don't trust anyone with them.

it was the first night away from him in 4 months, and the vet is about, oh....7 blocks away too! I was tempted to break in in the middle of the night with some treats and his toy squirrel and his beanbag and just lay with him. Lil buddy Smile
