This is my first dog, (a ridgeback) he's 20 weeks tomorrow. It looks like he has a pimple on his nose. He doesn't seem bothered by it. Should I just keep an eye on it or give it a wash with something specific?

Thanks.

I'd hazard a guess it's what we'd call a "puppy pimple"

If there is no infection which it doesn't look like to me, then I wouldn't touch it. If it became worse, looked infected, smelled bad, was causing irritation, or more develop, then I would see your vet for possible treatment which could include antibiotic, anti inflammatory , or sebaceous blocker.

Some breeds seem more prone to puppy pimples than others.
