We have had 2 of this type of dog and both got these bumps. On one it was just fat lumps and no big thing, but some on the other were cancerous. So it can only really be told by a vet.

I would definitely take him to vet asap, i too had a staffy for 13years -she had a lump on her leg for quite a few years, when i took her to the vet he told me it was just an ingrown hair.. later down the track they started to pop up everywhere until one split open and a tumour was poking out!! she had so many surgery's in the last few years of her life but in the end cancer had taken over her body and we had to put her to sleep- very very hard thing to do! I would definitely get it looked into as soon as possible and if you notice any more poping up request an xray- not only could it save you money in the long run but it may also show you something that is not visible on the outside.

I know cats can be carriers of ringworm, that show up on bumps on the cats but goes full blown to us humans. This may not be the same situation with the dogs but it is definitely worth getting it checked out. If you have a blue light and can shine it on the area of the dog and it illuminates it is ringworm, you both will need to be treated. Good Luck!!!

Go get him check because there not suppose to be any lumps unless your feeling something else like a bone or something. It might bother him too... Try calling a Vet 1st because you don't wanna be charge for them just checking him out, call and if they tell you to come in then do so..

Sounds like "Fatty Tumors" but, then again, I agree with others, have the vet look at him. It could even be parasites. Don't take a chance.
Good Luck!

Take him to the vet. They could be parasites, causing many health rpoblems, or another problem that should be addressed by a vet.
