I have an 8 1/2 month old neutered male. The other day I saw some white thick discharge on the tip of his penis. He has been acting normal, potty has been normal. I took him to the vet and she said that's normal. I thought it was a UTI but the urine test came back fine. Then today he peed in the house which he hasn't done in a long time. No warning or anything he just stood there and peed.

Anyone else have this issue??

Yeast infection maybe?

If that is what it is, what can I give him to help? It's wierd that I got the puppy a week ago and it happens to Nikko. Also the urine sample was 2 hours old I'm wondering if that affected the results. But the vet didn't seem concerned and said it was normal

I'm not really sure. I know dogs get yeast infections in their ears, but I have to assume it can happen in the genital area just like it can with humans. It's just a guess, I have only personally dealt with ear yeast in dogs. Humans have to get medication to get rid of it, I'd assume if you can get penile yeast in canines you'd also need meds. Maybe Brooke can confirm they can get it, or call the vet and ask.

Appa had this "problem" all the time when he was young. Around 8 months it stopped. Are you sure it's not just Smegma and the peeing was a fluke?

Yes, Chili had this problem once. He also peed in the house, but you could tell he felt so bad about it. It wasn't a UTI, the urine sample was fine. The vet said it was a bit of an infection at the tip of his penis, so he got antibiotics and we had the groomer give him a "sanitary shave" around his peepee (they didn't even charge us, as they said his "bikini wax" was so embarrassing for him that they felt bad hehe). They told us to pull back on his foreskin and clean under there more often. Does he lick his penis a lot, drink a lot and pee a lot?

He does lick it but not more than normal. Nothing has changed other than the discharge and him peeing on the floor last night. He hadn't done that in months since he's been house trained I was thinking it had something to do with the new puppy

I can only tell you by experience that a UTI cannot always be ruled out by a stick test, I learned it the hard way. Most times they should do a culture to be sure.

Danzig gets a white discharge every now and then. I believe it's just smegma. He's never been sick or anything. I think him going potty in the house was just a coincidence.

The word "smegma" makes me laugh.
If you read MAD Magazine back in the 60's. you'd know the word.
Those crazy MAD cartoonists would arbitrarily write "smegma" along with "potzebie" on buildings, boxes, trucks, anywhere just to get kids like me to look up the meaning.

I'm sure there is a better word for it but that's what I know it as. I always had female dogs so when we got Danzig, I freaked out about the discharge. Luckily my boyfriend filled me in on "smegma".

I had no idea it came from MAD magazine though.
