Hi there and thank you for using Pet Coach! It is difficult to say without pictures what is going on with Casper. With your description, I would suspect either a skin infection (bacterial or fungal) or skin tumors. I would suggest having Casper examined by a veterinarian to further determine what these spots may be in order to get Casper the most appropriate treatment. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions or concerns you may have. I am also available via phone or text consultation.
