Hi. If Maggie just ate one small rock there shouldn't be much of a concern. Keep an eye on her eating and pooping habits but if all is normal it should pass. Be certain to watch and make sure this is not a common thing for her to do. Dogs that continuously eat rocks or eat a large number can become obstructed. If you notice Maggie having vomiting or trouble defecating then have her checked by a vet.
