It is difficult to determine what the lumps are just by looking at them. It is best for you to have your local vet examine them. The vet will likely want to do an aspirate of the masses to help determine what they are. They may be something benign like a fatty tumor but they could also be malignant. You need to know what types of tumors they are so you can know what is the best way to treat them. https://pethelpful.com/dogs/About-Dog-Fine-Needle-Aspiration Hope this helps. Best wishes.
