My dog has a red circle on his belly, no pain. Is it a bruise?

Question

There is a red circle on the right side of my dogs belly. It doesn’t seem to bother him, when we touch it he doesn’t care. Is it a bruise? Pet's info: Dog | Yorkshire Terrier | Male | unneutered | 3 years old

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Chewy. Yes, this area does appear to have a bruise. However, bruising is not common in dogs and can indicate a bleeding disorder. I recommend that he sees his veterinarian today. Bloodwork should be tested. I hope this information helps!
