people are inquiring as to how fry is doing

there are no definitive answers from the vet, but after searching online, this seems to be the most likely cause... and the photos posted online are most similar to it...
Canine Cutaneous Histiocytoma 
A histiocytoma in the dog is a benign tumor. It is an abnormal growth in the skin of histiocytes (histiocytosis), a cell that is part of the immune system.
Most commonly histiocytomas are found in young dogs and appear as a small, solitary, hairless lump.
Most histiocytomas will regress within two or three months.
