It sounds like you're concerned about a white dot in your dog's eye, which is understandable. This could be due to a few different reasons, such as a small corneal ulcer, a cataract, or even a deposit of calcium or lipid. Since you've noticed it for a couple of days now, it's important to keep an eye on any changes in its size or shape. Also, watch for signs that your dog might be uncomfortable, like rubbing the eye or squinting.

In the meantime, you can help by keeping the eye clean and free from debris. Gently wipe around the eye with a clean, damp cloth, but avoid using any over-the-counter eye drops unless your veterinarian has specifically recommended them.

If the white dot doesn't go away, starts to grow, or if your dog seems uncomfortable, it would be wise to have a veterinarian take a closer look. They can determine the exact cause and suggest the best course of treatment.

If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please feel free to reach out. Thank you for taking such good care of your pet!
