I would recommend that you have Buddy examined by a vet. Sometimes lumps like this are benign tumors or skin tags that don't cause any issues and are often associated with aging. Others could be more aggressive skin tumors that need to be removed or biopsied. Your vet will do a physical exam to determine what, if any, thing needs to be done.
