My dog ate spaghetti with meat sauce. Is it safe or toxic for dogs?

Pet's info: Dog | Yorkshire Terrier | Female | spayed | 11 months and 14 days old | 8.9 lbs

My roommate, without my knowledge, fed Coraline spaghetti. I am not sure of the amount, I turned around just in time before she ate the rest. I understand obvious GI upset. Is she in immediate danger based on the ingredients of pasta, pasta sauce and hamburger?

I understand your concern. Thankfully none of these ingredients is toxic to pets so she is in the clear there. At the most she may have some stomach upset (vomiting and diarrhea ). You can give her a bland diet of boiled plain chicken and rice I cottage cheese for a few days to help settle her stomach. Otherwise she should recover well. Now no more spaghetti for her! : ). I hope she turns out ok.
