Did you change your dog's food gradually or all at once? Normally, you're supposed to do it gradually by mixing new food with old food, but if you changed it suddenly because of the recall or whatever reason, it may have caused the diarrhea. Good idea getting her checked by a vet anyway though.

Next week is going to be a little late if your dog is being sick/having diarrhoea every day, as it will already be very dehydrated. It could be the food I spose, but it could also be a thousand other problems that vomiting and diarrhoea are symptoms of.

Good thing you called the vet and your dog will be seen!
Until your vet sees the dog you might want to research purchasing a higher quality kibble. Here is a site with reviews:

Well idk if its food but every once in a while my dog gets sick and gets really sluggish. It might be the food that was recalled and its good that you call the vet

is the dog chow wet food? are u sure it isn't the recalled kind???? maybe she has kidney failure, tho those aren't symptoms i'd associate with kidney failure. maybe a digestive problem or some kind of worms

If you cannot get to a vet easily, call the vet instead and ask their opinion!
