My senior dog has black bumps on his chin and near his mouth.

Question

Hi, i was wondering what these 2 or so black-like-bumps or moles are on my dog's chin& under close to his mouth , he is around 10 years old or so, rescue Manchester terrier dog 21+- pounds. He is not the easiest dog to take to the vet hard to control at clinic. He also had a fall from the couch several months ago, and he likes sitting in the sun everyday for vitamin D, and there was also a dog who tried to bite face once, so i'm not sure if these moles are related to any of this or from skin?Thx. Pet's info: Dog | Manchester Terrier(Toy) | Male | neutered | 9 years and 9 months old | 21 lbs

It is hard to say for sure by just these pictures but they look like skin tags. If they are hard, growing, bleeding or bothering him, I would have him seen by your vet. Otherwise, you could just watch them for any change. I hope this helps!
