Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This could be bruising secondary to some traumatic event like blunt trauma. This could also be an allergic reaction to something Dewey had contact with. I recommend that you continue to monitor him for now. If the area becomes worse or fails to improve on its own, have him evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Good luck and have a great day!
