My puppy won't eat and has smelly penis discharge after vet. What's wrong?

Question

My dog didn't eat food yesterday so I took him to the vet for checkup. He gave some injection and hunger syrup. Today he again didn't eat food.. I just noticed some wierd smelly discharge from his penis today. What can this be? Pet's info: Dog | Dachshund | Male | 4 months and 5 days old | 4 lbs

The discharge from the penis may just be because he isn’t feeling well and not grooming himself as well as he usually does. Male dogs usually have a small amount of yellowish discharge that they usually clean up themselves. The not eating is what worries me most. I would encourage you to take him back for a follow up appointment. I start to worry about things like a Viral infection, oral pain, or many other problems as puppies usually eat well. They may recommend blood work to help determine the diagnosis. Best of luck and I hope he improves soon. Thank you for using Pet Coach.
