Thank you for submitting your question regarding Winnie. Dogs can feel the affects of alcohol similar to how people do. Being much smaller though, they are more easily affected. That being said, if she is acting fine two hours after the incident, then she will likely be ok. It would not be possible to induce vomiting as she ingested such a small amount. Monitor her closely for the next couple of hours. If she acts intoxicated, stumbles around or vomits, you will want to seek emergency care. I hope this information helps!
