looks like unshed skin to me. How long has it been there? YOu could try adding some baby oil on the spot and see if that loosens it after awhile.

called BIO_MIST. I picked it up at petsmart and it is really good stuff for retained shed or just to use during a normal shed. It is a natural skin conditioner and a rehydrator. Completely nontoxic to animals.

Later,
