My 8-month-old dog has discharge from his private area. Is it normal?

Question

My dog is almost 8 months and still has discharge coming from his private area. Is this normal? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 7 months and 27 days old

Yes, it is normal to have discharge coming from that area as long as it's a yellowish-greenish pus looking discharge. It's called smegma, and it's actually coming from the sheath of the penis. Cassidy will have this type of discharge throughout his life.
