any idea's

I got this hound that has these little bumps under his skin mainly on his back legs and hips and a few on his ears, they don't seem to be bothering him any they just concern me a bit< I never had a dog get anything like this he had them when i picked him up,And didn't think much about it thought they were old tick bits,anybody have an idea what they could be and if there is something i can do or should i take him to the vet, He's not sickly or anything he eats like a horse and hunts hard for as long as you want to stay out, I really would like to get this cleared up cause it just looks bad and thought i'd see if any of yall had ever run across this, Thanks in advance (Jason) I should have mentioned that they are the size of a dime maybe a little bigger and the ones on his ears i noticed today they kinda look like grayish scabs thanks again for any help you can give.

ive seen similiar on dogs thatt got it from wet straw in the box

Fungus

Skin fungus. One cup of bleach mixed in 2 gallons of water sponged on dog every other day will clear in up in about a week.

I had a dog with a similar problem that he got between the time I agreed to buy him and the time I picked him up. He was hunting downstream from a chemical plant and was apparently exposed to a skin irritant. Took awhile for his fur to grow back in, but he recovered just fine. Once he got away from the chemicals, never had a problem again.
