Rash on dog’s tummy (pics included)

Can anyone identify this on my dog? Doesn’t seem to be bothering her at all. She licking it occasionally I think.
It’s been there since she returned from a stay at the in-laws at the weekend. Started with one or two spots... they are increasing in number and in size. They are completely flat, not raised.
I was thinking maybe fungal?
Thank you.

One of my dogs had similar. We ended up giving piriton tablet and put sudocrem on it as he ended keep licking it.never knew what caused it but he had been in long grass and got covered in seeds

Looks like irritation from grass or some other allergy

Google the amount of piriton a dog can have for the weight of your dog, and give him it. Should help

Second the sudocrem suggestion, my dog has delicate skin (lurcher) and often gets rashes - one application of sudocrem usually sorts her out.

Fantastic! Thank you.

If you use Sudocrem, please be careful to make sure she doesn't lick it off as it can be toxic to dogs due to the zinc oxide.

Piriton is good, though. To me it looks like a rash from grass or something.

You could give a half, or one Piriton, quite safely. Make sure it’s Piriton though, chlorphenomine maleate, though and NOT Piritese, cetirizine
hydrochloride ( ie NOT the one a day ones or the cheaper one a day ones from the supermarket containing this)
It’s pretty safe. My tiny Yorkie was once stung by a bee & was going frantic with the irritation. I rang the vet & he told me to give her four Piriton......FOUR!! I really questioned him was he sure! He said yes!. I was still nervous so gave her one, she only weighs 5lb, & she was fine & settled within an hour.
