Hello! I have a question, what does it mean when there's pus coming out of my 4 months old puppy? I'm a bit worried because I read in the internet that it may be vaginitis, also her pee smells a bit strong, please help me and thank you for reading!

Poor Pancake! You are right - it could be vaginitis but it could also be an urinary tract infection. Since she is so young, I would strongly recommend to have a vet take a look at her sooner rather than later if possible. Your vet will be able to determine if the cause and get her on the proper antibiotics to help her feel better. If left untreated, it could ascend up to her kidneys which would be much harder to treat. I hope this helps and she starts to feel better really soon!
