More eye questions...

Boxer Pal
My husband and I just got a boxer puppy, he's VERY young, about 5 weeks, and has been given the "okay" by the vet about a week ago. We just brought him home Wednesday, and he's been doing great! Neither of us have ever had a boxer before, so I feel like an over-protective mama questioning every little thing... I also don't want to run him to the vet every time I have a question.

This morning he had eye boogers that were thick and yellow. The weather has been changing and he's been spending a little more time outside. We live in the hill country and I'm thinking it might be allergies, but I wanted to make sure it's not a sign of something more serious. He also has a tiny bump on the rim of his right eye that looks a little like a pimple, but I've been keeping a close eye on it and it doesn't look swollen, and hasn't gotten any worse. Any ideas?

New mama,
Chelsea

Sadly I am an over protective mom also, so I would probably take him to the vet! You don't want to mess with eye problems, so I would get it checked out. However is he squinting, or rubbing at them? Are they red or look irritated? My boxers always have eye buggers...just something you learn to live with when you have boxers :)
