What causes pimple-like spots on puppy stomachs in hot, humid weather?

Question

Hi, i have two jack russel puppies they are about 7 weeks old, they have these pimple/blister type spots on their stomachs not a lot just a few on each dog. They are not sick, they are fine but it worries me i cannot leave it. It is very hot and humid where we stay and they were in the garage for 1st week when we got them (which was washed every day) what can it be? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | unneutered | 3 lbs

They may have a bacterial infection (staphylococcus) or a fungal infection or are suffering from fleas. There skin could also have a reaction to the detergent or cleaner you use to clean the garage. You will have to take your puppies to a veterinarian for a skin exam.
