Pet's info: Dog | Great Dane | Female | unspayed | 5 months and 28 days old | 55 lbs
Penny, my 6 month old great dane, woke up this morning with this bald spot on her back left leg. I'm not sure what it is?

This looks like it’s from and injury that had a scab over it and now the scab has fallen off. I expect this to heal and the fur to grow back in in a week or two. The skin itself looks healthy. If this isn’t healing by then please take her in for a veterinary exam and treatment. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Penny.
