As Dr. Linda mentioned, these tiny little bumps can pop up from time to time in puppies. I don't see any cause for immediate, major concern with either the bump on his nose or the one on his sclera (the white part of the eye). However, I do think it's worth having both of these bumps checked out by your vet in the coming weeks. With that said, if Rock begins to squint or have any eye discharge, you should get him checked out right away, as those are signs that the little bump on his eye is causing some discomfort.

    Hello. I am so sorry for your worries with Rock. He is certainly a cutie! Small, benign growths & cysts can pop up on puppies, & they are generally not worrisome. But all new lumps, bumps & nodules should be pointed out to your veterinarian at your earliest convenience. With a little further examination, your veterinarian will most likely be able to see if anything else needs to be done at this time. Thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
