Should I worry?

    Should I worry?

    We just came back from a trip to Lake Tahoe. Marley had a blast swimming and hiking...but I just noticed a huge sore under his arm. I think it could be from wearing his harness the entire time. He just gets so excited and is easier to control when he is wearing a harness. I put some neosporin on it. Should I be concerned? There is only one sore that I can find on him. Should I take him to the vet? Here is a picture. Thanks for any help.

    Looks like some ugly chafing.  I'd recommend something like balmex unless it's oozing.  Keep an eye on it and see if it gets better and if not then go to the vet.

    Yup as long as its not oozing, clean it up and put some neosporin or vitamin e on it. AND dont let him lick it!

    Okay...as long as it doesn't look like something else. It isn't oozing at all...just seems to have scabbed over. Luckily, it is in a spot he can't reach[:)]!
