My dog is about 3 1/2 years old, and she is a yellow Labrador Retriever.
She has bruising on her stomach and some parts are red, and also on the inside of her right thigh, it looks wet/moist.
She also has a something that is white right in the center of her stomach/abdomen, where her hair begins. It looks like a mole.
She is also spayed.

She is an inside dog, and also lives with 3 other Labrador Retrievers. They are all in fine condition.
One black (her sister), one chocolate (her mother), and another yellow (male, not related to any of them).
It actually used to be my brother's dog, and he would beat her often, and he's slightly abusive towards pets. I discipline my dogs, but what he does goes beyond disciplining them. I'm just wondering if that might have to do with it, maybe she has a slight internal bleed?

I don't believe it is a venomous bite, as she has had it for weeks now. I was waiting to see if it would go away, but it hasn't.

My dog is not in pain, otherwise I WOULD take her to the vet.

I picked her up yesterday off of the floor and forgot about her stomach, but she didn't yelp or anything. I guess she's okay.
I think she might be scratching her stomach and biting it alot. She doesn't have any fleas though.

The white thing could be her belly botton or a scar from being spayed.
Has she been outside alone? Hopefully she wouldn't have been hit by a car. Did this thing show up suddenly or develop over time?
Red and moist spots could be hot spots.
The best thing to do would be see a vet. IS she in a lot of discomfort?
It could also be a spider bite or snake bite... Infact, that is my best guess...
She really needs to see a vet ASAP as this is sounding a lot like a venimous bite of some kind.
Well, you've got redness AND bruising and something moist, still sounds like a bite to me, a snake or spider...
IF you brother has kicked her in the stomach it could be internal injuries.
Could also be a tumor...
Try the sites below...
*EDIT* - Thanks for the updates. I hope your dog is going to be okay. Now that you say she's biting it, it could be hotspots and they sell stuff for that over the counter just about anywhere.
I hope it goes away and it's good for know she isn't in pain.

You need to get her to the vet asap. It really doesn't sound good. Call your vet right now and see when they can get her in.
**After reading your updates, it doesn't sound as urgent. I would still really recommend getting her in asap to check for internal damage, illness, etc.**
