Hi Everyone I am a non frequent poster but I have run into a, what might be, a problem with my little Tucker man. He just turned 3 years on on Jan 25th but right around 2nd week of January he developed 3 dime sized blackish spots on his belly surrounding his penis. To me, they look like bruises?? but I believe those would be gone by now,almost 1 month later. They are still there and have not faded. Do Yorkies tend to get age spots or color changes in skin as they age? Anyone with this same issue? I am worried, like maybe its cancer...or something TERRIBLE.

I will be calling my vet in the AM to see if he can give me an idea but I would appreciate any input here as well..thank you so much!
