What are these black spots on my dog's stomach?

My dog (a 2 year old terrier mix) started to get these small black spots on her chest and stomach. They are smooth to the touch and don't rub off. The number of spots have increased lately. What is the likeliest cause of the spots? Should I be concerned?

Is it sunny where you are? My Jack Russell has far more freckles in the summer. If your dog has been sunbathing it could be that, but without a photo it's hard to know.
Welcome to Dogsey btw!

Here is an image of the spots. She does lay in the sun and on one side, and they do resemble freckles or small moles, so that could be it.

Bentley's are more 'splodgy'
I'd say if she seems off colour or more appear, give your vet a ring and maybe take her in for a quick check up?

Marie, did you ever figure out what it was?
My MinPin ( 2 yr.old) has the same thing on her stomach. I am awaiting a biopsy.
