How you like that boykin? Where'd you get him?

Love my Boykin. Got her from Lazy Moon Kennels in Ashdown, AR.

I just put some neosporin on it and will see what happens. If it looks worse tomorrow, I will call the vet. She doesn't seem bothered by it and it didn't flinch when I put the neosporin on it so I reckon it can't be too bad.

Thanks for all of the input.

Difficult to say with just picture. Dogs can get meibomian cysts which look similar. Sometimes can be cleared with some antibiotic eye ointment. Some have to be surgically removed. As long as its not directly rubbing on cornea which can cause corneal ulcers then you can probably wait and monitor it. Dogs also commonly get benign skin tumors on their eyelids which have to be removed. I would go get it looked at and get some eye meds if it continues to get bigger and more inflamed.
