I am sorry to hear about Kanin. The spots on his belly are most likely what we call "puppy pyoderma", or a bacterial infection of the skin we commonly see in puppies. With the lesions on the face I would be concerned this could potentially be puppy strangles, which is an immune mediated disease. You can read more about it at http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=2906 . I would recommend making an appointment as soon as possible for Kanin to get examined to determine if this could be strangles or another condition. If Kanin is very weak/lethargic then I would take him to the emergency vet because if the condition progresses it can become life threatening (if it is indeed strangles and not just a skin infection). Best of luck to you and Kanin.
