HI, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If you aren't sure then watch her closely and examine the next few stools. If it was a one time thing then I wouldn't worry, she may have been passing something she ate that was red. If the red persists and starts to look mucous or more like blood then repost or talk to your Vet. Good luck
