Loss of pigment around eye

[alschwahn]

This was Aspen's eye maybe 5 months ago, excuse the eye booger.

And then yesterday I noticed an eye booger that I couldn't get off. I left it alone cause I didn't want to irritate his eye. Well, today most of the boogers came off but the color of his skin changed. It doesn't seem to bother him. Is this something I should be concerned about?

He hasn't injured his eye or anything...I'm not sure what is happening.

Hmm, is that a little scan on the skin in the corner of his eye? Is it possible he's been itchy and has rubbed/scratched?

Scan = scab (autocorrect)

Spencer has exactly the same, also caused by a stuck booger (which I wiped off). I think the skin will just heal back.

Looks like he's grazed it a little somehow. I'd just keep an eye on it and see what happens. These dogs are always getting little scratches on them, and who knows how they do the vast majority of them

I suppose he was playing pretty hard with my friend’s Husky on Friday. He might have gotten scratched then. Will keep an eye on it, thanks everyone!
