Anybody seen this before I take it to the vet?  It showed up as a patch a few days ago, I figured the chain he's on rubbed him but didn't see how.  I went and worked off for three days and and came home and this is what it is now.  Just trying to find what it is and a fix for it.  I don't think it's him rubbing himself.

It's more than likely a spider bite looks identical to what my dog had....
Warm rag and some idione healed my dog up.. leave it open for sure
After it crust over u can take some aloe Vera cream for livestock and rub it on there...
But before it causes a debate some people have different opinions and ways off fixing things
But this helped me

It is a hotspot. I do not think anyone really knows what starts them.

Treat with antibiotics like Cephalexin and a steroid.

Ben, it's good for everything... hot spot, ringworm, mange, mites, cuts, deep wounds,etc...

All it has in it is sulfur, pine oil and mineral oil.

Looks like a sunburn to me. Had a dog for this so I took it to the vet and vet said sunburn. I said b/s .
But the vet went to school for something so Dr. orders said apply silver sulfate. I did and it cleared up in about two
weeks. Later my son told me she got tangled up out in the sun and he forgot
about her till he went to feed her at dark. Also had to put one of those big goofy looking collars
on her so she wouldn't chew at it.

I agree. hotspot. Seen and treated hundreds over the years for clients. SHave it and the area surrounding it. Vetricyn Hot Spot Spray works AMAZING.

A buddys dog did that. Looks identical to that. He was to lazy to take it to the vet and never gave it anything and it went away over time. To me looks like he had allergic reaction to something. Thats what i thought with my buddys dog anyway

X2 on the Vetricyn.  I have a dog that gets hot spots periodically and I usually spray the spot twice a day for 2-3 days with Vetricyn and it clears right up.
