I just adopted my puppy. He has been home 2 days. I noticed a small discharge that kind of hangs in the tip of his penis and also what can be a small rash right above it (it's not smooth like the rest of his belly). Doesn't seem to bother him, he just licks it sometimes. I am waiting for the adoption process to be finalized so I can get his medical record and take him to the vet but that's not until 5 days from now. Is there something I can do to help this? Should I take him to the vet now?
