my dog has a few lumps on his back. they look like warts but are getting bigger and you can see them now protruding through his coat. although it just looked like black hair before.
he also shakes a lot but doesn't seem to be in pain.

That photo is too blurry to make out anything, but what you describe sounds like benign sweat gland cysts. However, I cannot diagnose anything over the internet - any lump or bump (especially one that is getting bigger) is worth having your vet examine.
As for the shaking, that's a very vague sign. It could be a symptom of a variety of problems, or it could be nothing. Is this a new problem?
I'd make an appointment to have your vet check out those lumps, and mention the shaking while you're there.
