Hopefully you are not feeding ANY DAIRY PRODUCTS - cheese or milk nor people foods..also check for any plants she may have chewed on - many plants, house plants can upset tummies, even kill, could be her food or worms too ( sounds gross but puppies often have worms from the moms after nursing, don't know why..but they do & you will see the worms right after the poo, it has to be fresh or tested by a vet sometimes if it is worms ) or you can try some plain old cooked ( COOLED )white rice for a day ( also very important is that she drinks water - dehydration is what makes them weak & sicker) so when you cook, add some extra water & see if things clear up in a day or 2 - unless she gets worse or you do see worms, then she needs a vet &/or some worm meds ( she may not like the rice at first, but is very good to get dogs used to white rice for just this reason )..if things don't clear up in a day or 2 @ most or things worsen...time for the VET..Peace & TC :)

you need to take the dog to the vet. i dont know how many shots its had, or what animals or environments its been exposed to, what its eaten, and what parasites it might have.
so.. your pup could have parvo, coxxcidia, giardia, parasites, gotten into something toxic. Coxxcidia and giardia are zoonotic, shich means people can catch it, and other animals can catch it too. so.. keep yur pup separated from other animals and wash your hands a lot whe handling the pup. use an antibacterial cleaner for any accidents it has in the house,
pups dehydrate quickly. if your pup is lethargic go the to vet NOW. If its skin is dry and not elastic, go to the vet NOW
ask your vet about feeding, they will most likely tell you rice and chicken, or add some canned green beans or canned plain pumpkin to the diet until the problem clears up.
good luck and hope oyur baby feels better soon

2 days is too long for a pup to have diarrea. She is probably dehydrated by now which could be fatal if not treated. She should not be fed, but the vet would probably put her on a fluid IV to nurish her as well as hydrate her.
If it were one of mine I would have taken then to the vet yesterday, but without fail today.
Good luck!

Get her to the vet today, puppies can dehydrate very quickly and can die as a result, if you absolutely can't till tommorrow morning then you have to make sure she gets fluids into, and some low sodi, broth to some water to get her drinking more
She may not eat but boil some hamburger draining off the fat and add some cooked rice and mix together and let cool to room temp

a puppy can quickly become dehydrated get her to the vet pronto take his advice on what to fed her after he's had a look at her, with older dogs its a bit different they can cope a bit better if mine has diarrhea I fast her for about 24 hours and then give her a bland diet (small amounts and often) of boiled rice a bit of chicken and see how she goes on from there also making sure she has a drink too

You can give your dog a teaspoon or tablespoon of peptobismal, depending on how large your dog is. My vet told me that this is what you should do and it doesn't hurt the dog either. I did this just last week and my puppy started feeling better right away. Good Luck!
If this does not work take your puppy to the vet when your vet opens next. Until then, be sure to keep him/her hydrated

She's looking ill? Take her to the vet! It could be worms or parasites, poisoning, you don't know. Better to have a professional check her out just to be sure.

boneless and skinless boiled chicken breast mixed with rice. Also make sure she is healthy, de-wormed etc. And make sure she drinks enough water.
