Thank you for submitting your question regarding Thor. He appears to have a mild skin rash. This can be due to an allergy, an abrasive surface or could be the start of an infection. Do not allow him to lick the area. If it does not heal or gets worse, please see his veterinarian. I hope this information helps!
