She is having runny diarrhea and not really eating and having to pee more frequently
It sounds like your dog is experiencing some concerning symptoms, including diarrhea, loss of appetite, and increased urination. Let's discuss some possible causes and steps you can take at home to help her feel better.
First, dietary issues could be a factor. Sometimes, a sudden change in diet or eating something unusual can lead to diarrhea. To help settle her stomach, ensure she is eating a bland diet, such as boiled chicken and rice.
Next, it's important to keep her hydrated, as diarrhea can quickly lead to dehydration. Make sure she has plenty of fresh water available at all times. You might also consider offering an electrolyte solution specifically designed for pets.
Regarding her increased urination, this could be a sign of a urinary tract infection or another urinary health issue. Keep an eye on how frequently she urinates and watch for any signs of discomfort.
Additionally, ensure she has a comfortable and quiet place to rest. Stress can sometimes exacerbate these symptoms, so a calm environment can be beneficial.
Given that these symptoms have been ongoing for a couple of days and include multiple issues, it's important to monitor her closely. If her condition doesn't improve or if she shows signs of severe dehydration—such as lethargy, dry gums, or sunken eyes—it's crucial to seek veterinary care promptly. These symptoms could indicate an underlying issue that needs professional attention.
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you.

I just got her from a family who couldn’t take care of her due to rose not liking the new dogs , and ever since she came to my house yesterday she’s been peeing more frequently and having the yellow runny stool , how long should I wait to see if she improves and how frequently should I monitor how many times she’s peeing?
It sounds like Rose has been through quite a few changes recently, which can understandably lead to stress and potentially affect her digestive system and urinary habits.
First, it's important to monitor her symptoms closely over the next 24 to 48 hours. Pay attention to how often she is urinating and the consistency and frequency of her stools.
If you notice that she is urinating frequently, it could be a sign of stress, but it might also indicate a urinary tract infection or other health issues. Pay attention to whether she is urinating in small amounts or showing any signs of discomfort, as this could be a concern.
