Ticks tend to be browner in colour.

Photo isn't up close enough to be sure but I'd suspect a little growth as it's pink. I got the vet to remove a similar one between the paws from my Springer a while ago.

Sheep Ticks go dark brown and you can see their hideous spiky bodies if you move the lump around. That's pink and looks more like a skin tag.

Ticks also gravitate towards wet areas, so mouth, eyes etc.

If it's a tick it will grow and darken rapidly, keep an eye on it.

Ticks tend to be darker as they fill up with blood. Keep an eye on it as they get bigger.

Looks like a cyst. Most common inter digitally between the toes. My vet removed one & showed me how to do it myself using a credit card should others occur.
