Sore On Neck/chest

[all that glitters]

So I have been walking Shyla in a Black Dog Balance harness for about a month now, and 2 days ago we were walking and suddenly the rain poured and she got drenched! The next evening I noticed her licking her chest (where the harness strap would sit, not tightly though) and got hubby to tip her on her back on his lap and I inspected and found a wet patch of skin, so I clipped the area and applied some cream to it that my vet gave me a while ago for hot spots. She jumped when I applied it so it did sting, but didn't lick it after (the cream numbs and soothes it)

Can a hot spot be wet looking but NOT red?

I hope its not from the harness Could the rain + harness + rubbing combo could have caused it ?

could be a combo from the wet and the harness and rubbing

If it was a hotspot nine times out of ten it is red.

If it doesn't settle down I'd be getting a vet to check it, but I think it's most likely from the rain etc.

THanks, my thoughts also! seems to be healing now, must have just been some chaffing
