This is a bit of inflammation usually caused by a mild allergy. If Izzy is otherwise not bothered by it or seen to excessively scratch or lick the area, then I would just recommend an over the counter shampoo or the Duoxo calm shampoo (my top pick for mild allergies) https://www.amazon.com/Douxo-Calm-Shampoo-Dogs-Cats/dp/B0010V5LNE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8
