I thought of an abcess (SP?)....... I too wonder about healing cause of frictin and all unless you can keep her sleeping till it heals......( good luck with a husky huh?)

hopefully it´s nothing serious and maybe he can remove it, there are these things like bandaids but more like nail polish (I´ve seen my parents use it when their fingers get cracked due to the bowling ball, not sure if there is something like that for dogs, but I´m almost sure there is) it´s like second skin that is waterproof and protects and helps inthe healing......

keep us posted on Star will ya.........good husky vibes on the way!!!
