[SARGE2008]

Hi...my pup Hero just turned 4 months and as of yesterday his nose started to run here and there clear so I figured no big deal but then later on and this a/m it is a light greenish color so I called the vet and have a appt for 4:15 but was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on what it could be or if anyone has ever had these kind of symptoms before. Thanks

Sounds to me like he could have something stuck up in his nose--a bit of a leaf or perhaps a few grass seeds--particularly if he is sneezing or pawing at his nose a lot--but I'm not a vet.
Glad you're going to a REAL vet later today--good luck and keep us posted what he says.

Does he have a cough? If he starts to cough it could be kennel cough. Even if he gets the Kennel Cough Vaccine he could still get kennel cough. The vaccine covers about 10-14 strains of cough there are like 40+ strains of kennel cough.

Just watch if he develops a cough or if he not better in 2-3 days for a re-check. The antibiotics should take care of it.
