QUESTION:

About five weeks ago or so, my dog got on her front paw something that looked
like a bump. It was itching her right away and in fact she finally bit off the

crusty part of the spot pulling out the hair.
The skin without the hair looked a little inflamed (I put neosporin on it for a
couple of days), however the day after she stopped caring for it and it seemed
like the spot wasn’t bothering her anymore.

I was hoping for the spot to go away but it never did, and it got darker
instead. Now some hair are starting to grow back.
I
attached here two photos, one is right after she bit off the hair when the
spot was a lighter color, and the other one is how it looks now.
Her skin I believe should be a very pale color. I looked in fact around the

area of the dark spot and it does look a light color under the hair.
The spot doesn’t have pustules, or crusts and it doesn’t look infected
(meaning it’s not moist).
The dog has not touched the spot since the first day.

What that can be? She looks overall okay…
(My dog’s name is Billie and she is a rescued dog. She looks like a rat
terrier/pincher, she is about 8 months old).
Thanx
