I would have the lumps checked. Chances are they are just fatty tumors and nothing to worry about, but it is better to have them checked. And I agree about giving the pumpkin and seeing if that works, and also it does sound like the SD is not agreeing with him. My 11 old golden retriever is on the science diet for his kidneys right at the moment--he has a kidney infection. But he will be back on his regular food once it is cleared and his kidneys are normal again.
I also use the Sceince Diet for weight loss on my lamost 7 year old golden. She was on it for a few months and lost the needed 15 pound. I didn't hve any trouble at all with her being on it. However, once the weight was off (she put on weight bcaue of bad knees and knee surgeries a year apart) she is on her low cal food now.
