Cookie should be okay after eating the birds, however keep a close eye on her over the next few days as the little bones could potentially cause an issue in the gut. Keep an eye for vomiting, diarrohea and dullness. If concerned go to the vet asap. The only way to prevent this happening again is to make sure the birds are secure from the dog. You won't be able to train the dog not to eat them.
