Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! They are likely comedones which are like black heads. They likely won't cause any harm in a puppy. If they have appeared suddenly you can try a medicated shampoo. Bathe 2-3 times per week and let the lather sit on the belly for 10 mins before rinsing. I am sure Barley will be seeing your Vet again soon for puppy shots, have them take a look as well. I've attached a shampoo link. I hope this helps and I wish you and Barley the best! http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=21564
