My puppy has a UTI and is currently on antibiotics. I took her brother and her out to take pics and she came back with this red rash. What could it be? The vet isn't open until Monday. It goes up her belly to the bottom of her chest

It looks as though Zelda may have come into contact with something outside. Along with the redness there are several small cuts / wounds that she appears to have sustained. Since your vet is closed until monday, I would administer Benadryl at 1mg per lb of bodyweight and clean the raw areas using a solution of iodine and saline so that it is a weak tea color. Then I would schedule an appointment with your vet when you can

It looks like she has several abrasions. It is possible that she scratched herself on something during your outing. I would keep it as clean as possible, keep her from licking by either placing a cone or a t-shirt, and apply a triple antibiotic ointment to the abrasions. If they are not resolving or getting worse, I would recommend taking her to see your family veterinarian for an examination. They may need to do testing on her skin to look for infection and will likely prescribe an oral antibiotic if an infection has developed.
