Hey there. How's your baby now? Please please please keep in mind that just because he's eating and drinking, does not mean he's not dehydrated. Can you tell me how much he weighs? I would take him into a vet, diarhea for three days can wreck havoc on their little systems.

Most likely, IF it is just an irritated GI, they will take his food and water away for 12 hours, give something like pepto, maybe antibiotics and then start him on an intestinal formula from the vet... However, it could be something much more serious, and it's worth taking him in before it becomes a true emergency.

Also, you may want to consider changing dog food.. not sure what brand you have him on now, but Ceasar's isn't very high quality. There is so much info here about dog food! BTW- Welcome to YorkieTalk!!!
