Pet's info: Dog | Boston Terrier | Male | neutered | 9 years and 8 months old | 25 lbs
My Boston Terrier is 9, and a few days ago I noticed a white spot in his pupil. It seems to come from behind his iris and into the pupil. It's doesn't look like it's on the surface of the eye. His eyes have not been getting cloudy. Do you have any idea of what it could be?

Hello I can't tell exactly what is going on with Jack but it could be a type of cataract forming in his lens causing that spot. If he isn't squinting, does not have any eye discharge, redness and/or cloudiness you can monitor that spot for now and contact you veterinarian about how soon they would want to examine his eye more closely with a specific light and lens.
