My dog has white spots on eye waterline after camping. Should I worry?

Question

I have a one year old sheltie 2 days ago we went on a camping trip and on our way back my boyfriend and I discovered two small white decoloration spots on her waterline, and we swear they were not there before, we even looked at pictures to make sure of it. Her eye looks good, there is no signs of pain or infection, no swelling, her too eyelid was a bit dry and red but I washed it with a sterile 4x4 and saline water and it look good today. Any idea what this could be? Pet's info: Dog | Shetland Sheepdog | Female | spayed | 1 year and 6 months old | 24 lbs

Hi and thanks for your request. If there are no other signs combined with these discolouration then they seem a normal (de-)pigmentation of the skin which can change with time. Nothing to be worried about. The pic is compatible with a comfortable, normal eye and eyelids as far as I can see.
