THe are small pink raised spots that he keeps licking. They have grown in size. They are not bleeding or anything. They are just unsightly and are annoying to him.

Sounds like insect bites, however as others have said without seeing, it could be more. Look closely to see if there are fleas, and are his gums bright pink, or whitish, if so, he is anemic from the blood loss by said fleas. See the vet...

Sounds like an allergic reaction, maybe to bites of inset bites, pollen / grasses. think if there has been any change in routine (walks, food etc)

Also check the coast for any parasites.

Could be mange, could be little tumors, could be hives...could be lots of things. The dog needs a vet.

Take your dog to a vet. What's wrong with you? If you had an irritant like that, you would see a doctor, right? Please do not own pets if you can not be responsible with them. They are living, feeling beings, not toys.

Easy on there me darling Colleen, I'm a large and small pet owner for a life time. My animals are seen regular by the vet. No costs are spared when it comes to my families health, animals included.

I feel better then. You have no idea how many people come here looking for fast free fixes for their pets rather than spending the money to have the pet cared for properly. It's maddening to know how many animals are abused through just the act of ailments being ignored or not properly addressed.
