How old is your dog?
Many dogs get fat deposits just under the skin, especially as they age. Normally they don't itch though. Could be an allergic reaction to something as well. I would get it checked out, if anything, just to figure out what it is.
my dog is 4 yrs old.
he was itching in that area last 2 weeks ,so i felt around,thought i founda thorn etc from hunting grouse.
then i felt this small like cyst as phil said,its not in skin seems to be in fatty tissue between his ribs/skin.
its soft like a pancake shape or football shape about 1/2 inch long.
i will be taking him to vet next week,its hard to find and you have to feel around the area to find it.
