Hi there. Those could be little pustules (basically zits) or warts which puppies are prone to getting. In either case they usually resolve on their own, but I would have them checked by your vet if they don't go away in the next month. Hope that helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
