Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Darla! Thanks for the picture! The area looks painful. It is possible that this is from trauma, maybe her skin there got pinched. Other causes are an insect bite or even a mass. If the redness gets worse or doesn't improve I recommend that Darla have the area evaluated by your Vet. I hope this helps and I wish Darla a speedy recovery!
