Poor girl. This almost looks like a superficial bite mark possibly?? and the redness is a bit concerning. Even if it isn't bothering her, I would still recommend taking Remi to your vet to get this checked out. There is a scab there so it is trying to heal but the bite looking marking should be evaluated further. You can also try cleaning it with betadine diluted 50:50 with warm water, let it dry, then place a very small amount of Neosporin on it (nothing too goopy that she can lick off) until you can get her looked at. I hope that Remi's skin heals well soon! Best wishes and take care.
