mine did something similar and it turned out to be severe hot spots dont know why shes never had them before and she is 4 years old. i took mine to the vet and he gave me antibiotics and told me to do water theropy she healing up now but it still looks bad. She had big spots one about a baseball size and one about 2 inches wide and 6 inches long. Skin and everthying feel off and was just a raw spot.

vet didnt know what it was. said maybe he got into something in the brush.  gave me antibiotics, and he's healing up fine and eating well.  he went off feed because he had fever from the infection.
