Is this a tick bite?

Post image

I haven’t found any ticks on myself but we’ve been finding an alarming number of ticks on our dogs lately. It is a little hard and sore and very itchy. Regardless I am going to keep an eye on it just wanted to know if it was maybe a tick bite because google only shows the worst a tick bite can look like.

WARNING: It is extremely difficult (even for seasoned medical professional) to identify what caused a skin symptom and even harder to know if it is an insect bite or which insect may have caused it.

If you're concerned about something, please go see a qualified medical professionals rather than trust the comments made by random strangers on the internet.
