My dog has 2 strange lumps on his side. They cause him no discomfort or anything. They are about the size of a pencil eraser and a light pink color. He has a smaller one lower on his side, the same color and shape, just smaller. There are also these really weird patches on his torso everywhere and they are like dry skin patches. I think the patches turn into the bumps, but I am not sure. It is really scary not knowing what they are or how to get rid of them.

As some dogs age they can develop skin tags, fatty tumors, warts, and lipomas. It is best to notice any changes in color and growth and after doing online research as much as possible about each of these mentioned and you feel uncomfortable still, then take your dog to the vet and have it checked out. I do not believe the other problem your dog has is related to any of the above lump issues and for this reason, I'd take the dog to the vet promptly and have both looked at while there.
Cocker Spaniels which we own get fatty tumors and warts when they are six years and above. They've all been benign. When you see tiny clusters or pinkish color warts forming in one area around legs and leg pits, that's when I'd take great concern as one of my dog's had cancer and it was removed only to reappear w/i a year and we had to have the dog put down as he was experiencing pain and a second surgery was out of the question as cancer had advanced internally.
I believe it's always better to be safe than sorry and get a professional's diagnosis more than an opinion in regards to a pet's skin changes and you get peace of mind to a degree.
My dog had the same bump although I cannot tell you what it is . I can tell you I gave him a bath . Using equal parts 1/4 cup applecider vinager and 1/4 distilled with dawn dish washing liquid 1/4 cup into the bath. 3 days later i notice it popped. I waited 2 more days checked . His hair in the area was stuck to him when I pulled. I saw something white. I lightly and barely pulled on it and something started to come out. Grayish brown was round flat kinda like a disc, or a worm curled ..a little hard until I squished on it. It had chalky white substance. Like what we get when we have a pimple . It didn't seem to bother him for me to touch it.
You are going to have to take you dog to a Vet. No one reading this newsletter can diagnose your dog. It could be nothing, or it could be something deadly.
That is so bad. You should sound more soft not just BE SCARED!!!!!

looks like a tick to me
Did you find out what this was? My dog had a similar one on his inner thigh.
