    My dog ate rice with hot sauce
    Please help earlier my 4yr old mix golden retriver ate rice with hot sauce on it and now she's crying and yelping and sniffing her butt. What can I do? I gave her milk and massaged her stomach.

    She should be OK, how did she get to the hot sauce.

    She will recover from the hot sauce fine, it's pretty temporary.
    However, the bones could cause issues of their own, dogs should not eat bones.
    They can splinter and cause lacerations in the digestive tract, cause impactions and become foreign bodies that sometimes have to be removed surgically.
    Watch her carefully, if she starts vomiting, tries to have a BM, but can't, begins to act slow or lethargic.
    And the milk can cause some diarrhea, so be on the look out.
    You need to urge your brother in law to be more careful.

    I hope it passes too.
    Just to be on the safe side call your vet Monday morning and give them a rundown of what happened.
    Blockage is a possibility when bones are involved.
    So take notes tonight to tell your vet tomorrow.
    Is she eating?
    Is she drinking?
    Is she vomiting?
    Has she had a bowel movement?
    If not,has she tried over and over and nothing happened?
    Does she seem uncomfortable or painful, pacing, restless?
    Good Luck and I hope she does well.

    Of course if she is not acting normally tonight you will need to contact an emergency vet.

    She will have a stomach ache from the milk. Dogs are lactose intolerant, they can't handle milk products very well, so you just added more upset when you gave her the milk.

    If this just happened a few minutes ago I would recommend feeding the dog watered down bread, as much as you can get into her. The bread will wrap around the chicken bones, and protect that stomach. Cotton balls are better, but most dogs won't take them easily.

    You will have to watch her closely. Chicken bones are very dangerous to dogs. If you notice her in extreme pain, not able to have a bowel movement, or any blood in her rectum or stool, you will need to get to the vet asap.

    She's moving her bowels and she's eating and drinking water and there's no blood I just think her bum is still burning
