Thatr looks like hives, so he may have come into contact with something he is sensistive to. I suggest giving him a lukewarm bath with a mild pet shampoo and if they do not improve significantly by tomorrow, get him in to your vet for an exam. Of course, if he gets worse, has trouble bresthing, becomes lethargic, develops vomiting or diarrhea or any other adverse symptom get him to your vet right away.
