Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! The pictures are a little blurry and it is hard to see exactly what may be going on with Marley's skin. A white bump on the skin can be a variety of things, including a cyst, blocked skin pore, wart, or another underlying issue. The bump on his stomach I can't distinguish in the picture. I do, however, recommend all abnormal growths be evaluated by a veterinarian to determine if they are benign (non-cancerous) or not. Typically a needle sample can determine this, and if any further treatment may be needed. Good luck!
