First, ask yourself what the dog has been eating lately that wasn't previously in the diet. Watch especially for diary products or especially rich meals. Consider mixing the dog's food with 50% steamed rice. Dogs actually enjoy rice, and it can help this problem. Toast wihtout butter will also help. You can also give your dog TINY doses of pepto-bismol. Before you do, ask your Vet about a safe dosage -- otherwise don't do it. While the dog has diarrhea, make Certion the water bowl is always full and available. If the diarrhea continues over a week, start worrying about dehydration and call the vet.
