Pet's info: Dog | Pug | Male | neutered | 9 years and 11 months old | 25 lbs
This bump appeared under my dog’s eyelid a day ago, seemingly overnight. It’s soft to the touch and very much looks like a bug bite. My dog doesn’t scratch it, it doesn’t seem to bother him in any way. Should I be worried about it. He is a 9 year old pug, neutered

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This looks fairly small and mild. This could have been a bug bite or even something like due to irritation. I would continue to monitor him for now. If this gets any larger or starts bothering him, have him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Otherwise, this is likely going to go away on its own. Best of luck!
