My puppy looks like he has a tiny red scratch or cut on his chest / belly area. Potentially a nipple. Not bleeding. Puppy is behaving normally. Thoughts?

Since he is acting normal, you can clean the area with soap and water then apply neosporin. It seems small enough to form a scab and heal on its own but if you notice any swelling or bruising or a change in appetite then I would have him checked
