Those do not look like MCTs, they do not look like tumors at all. They appear to be cysts or warts. If a dog has masses around the mammary glands they are typically not MCTs but adenocarcinomas. I have never heard of MCTs arising after being spayed. I suggest you have her back to your vet for a follow-up exam.
