My dog ate a pork bone & is vomiting orange/red mucus. Is it blood?

Question

My 8month old dog is vomiting mucus that is bright orange/red. She has eaten a smoked pork bone dog bones for a few days. Could this be why? Could it be blood? I don't smell blood in the mucus. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 35 lbs

Yes, this could be blood, and Savi has to see a vet immediately. She could be experiencing a perforation of her GI tract from the bone, or she could have an obstruction from it. This is a medical emergency, and she needs an x-ray to see if the bone has caused an obstruction, as well as a physical exam, blood tests, and a urinalysis. Please take Savi into an ER vet or find a vet on call to see her ASAP.
