Thank you for submitting your question regarding Tedddy. No, this is not common in young puppies. He will need to see his veterinarian to have his eyes evaluated. He could have an infection, a scratch across the surface of the eye or even a congenital problem since he is so young. Do not allow him to paw at his eyes as this could make it worse. Good luck!
