That sounds like the area is infected and the green stuff you are seeing is pus. This wound should be looked at by your vet so it can be clipped, the pus drained, the area cleaned and then Jake started on antibiotics. Until you can get to your vet, keeping the area clean and dry and placing an Elizabethan (cone) collar on Jake so he can't lick it is best, but it should be seen ASAP.
