If you mean his eyes go inward, toward each other, I'm not sure. I know some toy breeds are prone to east-west eyes (strabismus) when the eyeballs go outward, sometimes they correct themselves as the pup matures, sometimes not. Not sure if it indicates an underlying problem but in your dog's case, as it's something new, would probably have him checked by the vet who can give you a referral to an opthamologist for a thorough going-over (they have better equipment than a regular vet as well as more training). If his eyes arent tearing and he's not rubbing them and his vision seems OK, I probably wouldnt be overly concerned but I would want to get him checked out, just to be on the safe side.
hi, my 8 month old bull mastiff puppy has recently become cross-eyed, we noticed it shortly after he was neutered, did you ever get any answers as to why your puppy became cross-eyed?
Convergent strabismus (aka cross-eyed) is normal in some breeds and can be caused by an injury or can be inherited. (Same for divergent strabismus where the eyes go away outward.)
Most vets, familiar with this condition, will just say it is normal and does NOT affect their standard of living, but the dog should not be bred.
But if in doubt, find a Veterinary Ophthalmologist. (I know a great one in Rochester MI, but that probably won't help you.)

Don't say the dog should not be bred. Why shouldn't it?
There are people who are cross-eyed, too, you know. Should they not breed either?
