It's interesting to note that snoring in dogs can sometimes be attributed to their sleeping position or the shape of their snout, particularly in breeds with shorter noses. However, if you observe that your dog isn't growing as expected or there seems to be an issue with their mouth, it might be worth investigating further. Potential mouth issues could include dental problems or obstructions in the nasal passages, both of which could contribute to snoring.

As for the possibility of pink eye, this condition, also known as conjunctivitis, involves inflammation of the eye's outer layer and inner eyelid. It can result from allergies, infections, or irritants, and you might notice symptoms such as redness, discharge, or your dog frequently rubbing its eyes.

For home care, you can gently clean any discharge from your dog's eyes using a warm, damp cloth. Additionally, ensure that your dog's sleeping area is comfortable and free from allergens that might irritate their eyes or respiratory system. If the snoring or eye condition persists or worsens, it would be prudent to consult a veterinarian to rule out any underlying issues.

It's important to monitor your dog's growth and overall health. If you have significant concerns about their growth or notice persistent symptoms, a visit to the vet would be beneficial to ensure your puppy is developing healthily.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
