What could this be on my dog’s skin? Scab or something else?

What could this be on my dog’s skin? Scab or something else?

Hi everyone,

I found this on my dog’s shoulder today. It feels like a small lump, about the size of a pea, and the fur seems to be attached to it. It almost looks like a scab, but I’m not sure if that’s what it is. The skin around it is slightly pink, and it doesn’t look like a typical tick to me, although I’m not certain.
Has anyone seen something similar before or have any idea what it could be? I’m planning to have my vet take a look, but I’d really appreciate any thoughts or experiences. She is 7 months old and a Shih Tzu

Thank you!
