The vet can prescribe something for the diarrhea- Metroidazole and it the tummy is making loud noises I have been given the permission from the vet to give 1/4 of pepcid a/c. (I have two yorkies and have given them 1/4 tablet of the pepcid) 1 weighs 6.5 lbs and the other weighs 11.5 lbs. It always works well if they ever get an upset tummy. make sure your dog is drinking plenty of water and stays hydrated too. Very important.

Also I have heard that canned pumpkin in small amounts is good for upset stomach. I have never given this before but I read on YT that it is great for diar and stomach upset.

If not better in 3 days you need to get her to the vet bc it can be very serious if it lasts longer than a few days.
