Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Based on the picture you provided, I suspect this could be an area of the skin that has developed an infection or these are insect bites (ants, etc.). I would recommend using Sentry Topical Wound Ointment which can be found at Petco and apply this twice daily until resolved. If the bumps continue to spread, worsen or do not resolve, I would recommend having Jax examined by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. Please take the time to mark this question as helpful or not as it helps us to improve on the quality of our answers to other pet owners. Thank you kindly!
