I put some antibiotic ointment on it, and it seemed better this morning, although still there! I put some more on before I left for work. We were at the off-leash park on Thursday, and there have been lots of mosquitos lately! I'm wondering if this happened at the groomers, if this is a bug bite, or if something else is going on.

He seems fine otherwise - peeing, poop, eating and drinking, acting as normal. Any thoughts - the vets are closed today!?!
This is like what Mickey had a few weeks ago. And actually he went to the groomer just about a week before the bump turned up. I was paniced, and was going to take him to the vet- but it cleared up in just a few days. I would keep an eye on it for a day or two, and if it doesnt go away, give the vet a call.
