Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! You are likely describing fleas. You can have your pup evaluated by a veterinarian for confirmation of this. If these are fleas, flea preventative/medications such as Bravecto or Frontline plus would be recommended. Good luck and have a great day!
