It sounds like your dog may be having an allergic reaction, which might occur suddenly after exposure to a new environment like a park. While the bumps don't seem to bother him much, it's important to monitor his condition closely.
- Monitor your dog’s symptoms and overall behavior.
- Keep an eye out for worsening symptoms such as excessive itching or swelling.
- Consider potential allergens your pet may have encountered.
Sometimes dogs can develop allergic reactions to environmental allergens such as pollen, plants, or even insect bites while on walks. These can manifest as small bumps or hives on their skin. If the bumps persist, increase, or your dog seems uncomfortable, it's wise to consult with a veterinarian for a proper assessment and peace of mind.
