Pet's info: Dog | Pomeranian | Female | spayed | 11 lbs
my dog has a tiny red bleeding area on the top of her neck.. I’m very confused.. she didn’t have it yesterday because she got groomed yesterday- do you think they cut her and didn’t tell us? or do you think she was snagged by her new harness? i’m very confused.. it’s bleeding and it’s small

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This could have been from the grooming. If it is that small and superficial, it may heal on its own though it is hard to know based on a picture. You can continue to monitor it for now. If it does not improve or resolves within the next week, have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Good luck and have a great day!
