My puppy has a growing, red bump on her lower eye. Is it a stye?

Question

Hi there! My new puppy has this bump on her lower eye, i’m not sure if it could be a stye or if it is something more serious. It seems to have gotten a bit larger over the past couple days or so. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 5 lbs

Hi there, I'm concerned at the size and redness of the bump, this might be a stye or something that similar that is infected. I'd recommend taking her to her veterinarian when possible this week to have her assessed and treated. She may need eye drops or oral medications if it's a deep infection. I hope that's helpful.
