This lesion may be due to a healing abscess. This is an infection that happens under the skin and the healing process causes this scab like lesion that will resolve on its own. Since she can reach it, she will keep this area clean until it heals.
This could also be due to a food allergy. This is a common distribution for this type of lesion and this will require steroid treatments which the owner may not be able to get for her.
For now, when she appears, apply Neosporin to this area. If this is an infection, this will help and even if she licks this, it will not hurt her.... If this does not resolve, she may require veterinary attention.
Good Luck!!
