It's not common for dogs to eat the ash of marijuana - although of course they do frequently eat the "fresh" stuff as well as foods with marijuana baked in - so unfortunately I can't find any information specific to the dangers of its ingestion, and I've never treated it. My suspicion is that your dog will likely be OK, as I would guess that there would only be traces of THC present in the burned plant. However, the poison control center, as referenced below, maintains a database on every imaginable toxicity, and if you are still concerned I would recommend giving them a call.
