A lesion like this can be related to ringworm, a bacterial infection, skin mites or an allergy. I recommend to have Lucy tested for ringworm since it can spread to humans to be safe. Make sure to keep her from scratching the area with an Elizabethan collar if needed. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
