I would guess that Max's 'warts' might actually be skin growths known as adenomas, which are benign skin tumors that look very similar to a wart. Dogs can also develop contagious papillomas around their mouths, ears and feet which are more like typical warts but these are not as common. I would recommend making an appointment to see your veterinarian to have them take a look and determine whether or not there is any concern.
