My boxer puppy has oozing by toe nails like they are trying to decay if u what this is please let me know ASAP?

It sounds like an infection... something you should probably take it to the vet for...





It could be a fungal infection, in which the puppy will need to be put on antibiotics...





I would recommend bringing the dog to the vet.My boxer puppy has oozing by toe nails like they are trying to decay if u what this is please let me know ASAP?
Sounds like you are dealing with two problems. The oozing would indicate an infection and oral antibiotics or topical antibiotics will be needed depending on the severity. If the nails are dry, yellowing or brown, and brittle, the dog probably has a nail fungus which is caused by the same fungus that causes ringworm and will be treated with an antifungal used for ringworm.

Please, take the dog to your vet where they can try to diagnose and resolve the problem. Your dog could have a fungal or bacterial infection of the feet or nail beds, it can be a sign of an auto immune issue such as pemphigus or even a contact or food allergy.
Your question is very vague, but if there is puss then there is infection and he needs to see the vet. He could have got a cut on his paw, or he may have ripped a toenail. Whatever happened, he will need to be on antibiotics to clear up the infection.
An ingrown toenail can cause oozing and is very painful for a dog, and it occurs easily when their nails are not clipped regularly. If it's not an ingrown toenail maybe your puppy has a cut. Hope that helps...
take him to the vet he may have cut him self or broken the nail. He could get really sick if he broke the nail to far down and could start to lose a lot of blood. Get it checked out to make sure he is ok. Good Luck!!
Get your puppy to a vet ASAP, if you can not afford a vet call your local SPCA and see if they can help you. In some states they will offer a lower price, or just help the dog.
Infection!!! See the vet.
