Penis Discharge

Question
DO you know what we can do about our 4 mos. old puppy's messy penis discharge?  It has remained clear/white and our vet put him 1 week on antibiotics but its back and discharging more than before.  Any tips to help us stop the discharge or how often we should clean the penis?
Thanks!  

Answer
Hi Mike,  What did the vet say was wrong?  Did he say it was a yeast infection?  You might try giving him some yogurt with his dog food if it is a yeast infection.  I would definitely advise the vet since maybe the previous antibiotics just weren't strong enough, and I would find out if it was some sort of yeast infection.  YOu can clean it as often as you like as long as you aren't putting anything on it to irritate it or make things too dry.  Hope this helps.
