Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. This could be from the grooming and appears to be a sore. I would keep an eye on this and if it does not resolve within the next 3-5 days, I would recommend having a veterinarian examine Zoey so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. Please take the time to mark this question as helpful or not as it helps us to improve on the quality of our answers to other pet owners. Thank you kindly!
