Question
i have a 4 month old boxer and i have noticed he has been getting these smaill raised bumps that are located on the front and back legd top of his head and onthe sides of his body, there is no puss not bite marks. it comes and goes but it makes his fur look like he has ripples..

Answer
For some reason, boxers get hives.  You will have to visit the vet to get something that counteracts that. You might try some benedryl until you get to the vet.  If it isn't hives, it would be good to get a skin scraping anyway since mange also can inhabit all dogs.
