It is likely a solitary pustule or papule. These can be commonly seen in puppies because their immune system is still developing. If it is just 1 pimple, then I would not be too concerned and would just monitor for now. However, if this starts to spread, then its best to take Onex to your vet for medications to help resolve this bacterial infection or allergic skin disorder. Best wishes with Onex.
