I am sorry Alaina is not feeling well. I would recommend taking her to the vet since she has had diarrhea for 4 days and vomiting. These clinical signs can be related to sever gastric upset, foreign object obstruction, toxin, pancreatitis and even parasites. it is best for her to a have a good exam and some testing like blood work to determine the cause. Hope that helps!
