Why is my dog's fur red and warm in one spot? Should I worry?

Question

My dog has this weird red brass colour to his fur and it's kind of warm to the touch. It's only in one spot and his behaviour is normal. Should I be worried? Pet's info: Dog | Shih Tzu | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 8 months old

It sounds like it could potentially be a localised allergic reaction. I would ask you if possible, to post some pictures, as these could give more information on the extent of the lesion and if it is better to have Stephan checked over or not.
