If you're worried about it you can have it looked at but personally I cannot count how many accidents I've had with my stoma, I've had my ostomy since I was age 10 and have been hit smack in the stoma with a Softball when I played on a team, I've fallen on it, I've had dogs accidentally jump up and paw it, I've had all sorts of things happen that DID make it bleed and pain but it was fine, those stoma's are actually quite durable lol

I am still an extremely active person and quite honestly don't worry about it much. I hurt it yesterday when carrying heavy boxes down from the attic and it's sore for awhile but no big deal. If it bleeds and doesn't stop or the pain doesn't ease up go in, but I am sure you'll be fine......give your doggie a hug for me xoxo
