Me and the OH noticed the other day that scarlett about 6 times in 2 hours was chewing at her leg (about 3 inches up form her paw) and its all bald, she keeps making it bleed and its all red and sore, anyone know what it could be? i know its not her food as she been fine with it and she doesnt have a skin allergy as i took her to the vets about a month ago for check up, she doesnt have fleas and she seems t be fine apart from this one spot Sad

She could have something stuck in the area like a grass seed or something else that is causing it to hurt or itch.

It could be stuck inside of the skin. My last dog had this and the OH wanted to take her to the vet. I insisted there was nothing wrong but it turned out that a grass seed was stuck under the skin.

It could also just be an itch and like a person with a scab she just keeps picking at it. Some cream with an ace bandage around the area so she can't get at it will help the area heal.
