Hi Laurie
I'd have your veterinarian take a look at your puppy to make sure that there's nothing to worry about.

She's much too young to be coming into season (when you would expect to see some swelling in this area), so I'm wondering if perhaps she has an infection or at least some inflammation.

Urinary tract infections are pretty common in young pups, especially in females, and they're usually easily treated with antibiotics. However, if left UNtreated, they can cause serious problems such as kidney infections.

Have your vet check her out to be safe. Hope this helps, best of luck with your puppy.
