Ghese are subcutaneous hemorrhages (bleeding under the skin). Your dog may have a problem with blood coagulation, I suggest you take her back to your vet for a recheck. It is likely nothing to worry about provided these areas do not get bigger. If you feel that the dark areas are indeed increasing in number and size you will need to take Blue to your vet right away.
