I have 2 maltese my female who is 3 and fixed. Has diarhea that is yellow with blood in it. She acts fine but will just be walking and out it will come. What could this be?

How much blood is there? How much yellow component to it? How long has this been happening? Any other symptoms? Is there anything new, like changed food or medication? What kind of food do you use? Any table scraps or anything more than the one food? The details are important.
Since it is nighttime, what you can do is somewhat limited unless it is an emergency. If there is little blood, take her off food until morning when you talk to the vet. Don't keep her off food for over 12 hours without vet approval.
This could be something important, but there are too many questions for us to do more than general guesses. The yellow could be some infection, or just mucus. The blood could be a minor symptom of an irritation, or could be a big problem. Only a vet can say, after he/she sees the dog.
P.S. How about an update on how he is, please. It has been several days.

Well I know most people are going to say this but I am going to just say the same so , you probably need to see a vet and the yellow stuff may be puss and may lead to bad injuries so I would really keep an eye on your dog but dont act weird just act normal around the dog and that may make it heal faster.

it could be a number of things from just something she ate to kidney disease. don't stress i doubt it's kidney disease. you need to take her to the vet first thing. hold her off food for the night, and make sure she's Drinking plenty of water to keep her hydrated. then in the morning take her to the vet and let the dr figure out what it is. they will be able to narrow down several things just by looking at her. remember to keep her hydrated, a little dog like this can become dehydrated fast. good luck.

It is something that you need to talk to your veterinarian about. As soon as you can. It could be something really serious if it has blood in it.
