I could be something they ate, like grass, but eating grass usually is more likely to cause vomitting rather than diarrhea. Spicy foods could cause diarrhea and pain, but once the feces passes, the symptoms will ease. Certain non-dry dog foods can cause diarrhea. Diseases can also cause diarrhea. If your pet is vomitting and listless, not eating and/or drinking, or just not as active as he usually is along with having diarrhea, it could be the life-threatening disease called Parvo. It is imperative that you get your pet to the vet immediately so a Parvo test can be given. Parvo acts quickly and a seemingly healthy pet one day can be dead the next. That's not to alarm anyone, only to make the point that quick action is required. Parvo treatment at a vet's can be very expensive, but there are things you can do at home that might save your pet's life. You can find information and products by doing a Google search. If you decide to treat your pet at home, be sure to buy only those that list the ingredients and follow the directions exactly. There could also be other, less serious diseases causing diarrhea, but ruling out Parvo if other symptoms are present with diarrhea is the first thing that should be done.
