What are these black, pimple-like spots on my dog's tail skin?

Question

Our std poodle has a patch of skin on his tail that look like there is black debri under the skin. I can actually squeeze it like a pimple and little black seed shaped substance pops out and feels tacky and tarry like ear wax. He doesn’t have it anywhere else. Pet's info: Dog | Multi-Colored Standard Poodle | Male | neutered | 65 lbs

I recommend to have Yogi examined by the veterinarian. Sometimes lesions like this are hormonal, endocrine or allergy related. Those are likely blocked pores you are squeezing. Which I recommend to stop as those could become infected. I hope this helps.
