Looks like a "hot spot".

Home Remedies for Hot Spots on Dogs:
If you aren’t able to get to the vet right away, there are a few things you can do at home to help heal hot spots.

Follow these steps to promote the healing of the hot spot:

1) If necessary, use dog hair clippers to trim the fur around the hot spot. This allows the hot spot and affected areas to get air, which can prevent excess moisture that can hinder healing. Make sure not to use scissors- it may be likely that you will injure your dog since you can’t necessarily see how big the hot spot is under the hair.
2) Clean the skin with a mild shampoo or water-based antibiotic.
3) Apply a veterinary-recommended hot spot treatment spray.
4) Keep an eye on the area to see signs of healing or to determine if additional treatment is necessary.

If you have a cone, put one on as it keeps them from licking the area. Don't let them go in the water either, can make it worse.

looks like a hot spot, there is shampoos and creams for that, a lot of dogs get it, including my little guy. this spray helps but the shampoo is easier cause he loves baths. you can get it on amazon or at like walmart

I'm not a veterinary but it looks like claw bed infection. Antiseptic ointment or spray should help
