just recently adopted a dog and she is getting random scabs all over her coat. What is this/is it contagious?

Our dog has 4 scabs on her face and one on her rear. They are somewhat small abrasions. We took her to the vet when we first got her for a checkup, and they didn't find anything wrong. These abrasions have come since though. What could this condition be and is it contagious for her to give to our other dog? Thanks!

Without seeing a picture maybe you could search "demodectic mange" and see if it looks similar. We have a newly adopted puppy who has it and the vet said sometimes it goes away on it's own.
