What are these red splotches on my dog's skin and why is she licking?

Question

I just found 2 of these red splotches on my dog, what could this be and how can I help her out? I think I seen her licking this area a few times but I haven’t noticed anything excessive. So thankful for this app thank you all so much for the help! Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 6 months and 29 days old | 50 lbs

I'm glad you like the app! This could be a rash, such as from an allergic reaction to something in the environment. I would keep an eye on it for now, and if Harley keeps licking at it or it gets worse, have her seen by a vet on Tuesday. Best of luck.
