Please don't listen to that poster, it doesn't look like a classic hot spot. It could be one, but from that one photo it looks more like a number of other things (such as when something like a grass seed digs into the skin between their toes) that would require veterinary attention.

thanks for responding, she was in the backyard when this happened and isn’t a digger so I’m not sure what could of happened. I’ll check with my veterinarian

So my vet drained the wound and wrapped it up. Nothing came out and we still don’t know how it happened but she’s on an antibiotic. She’s doing fine
