You don't need to worry, because those appear to be Silky's nipples. A lot of people think that male dogs don't have nipples, but they do. They should be present in a line from the chest down to the groin on both sides. They should not change in size or appear red. If they have any change in their appearance, they should be evaluated by your veterinarian. I hope that was helpful! Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
