If you recently changed her food and then she may need to get used to it. Diet change can cause inflammation in the stomach and intestines and cause vomiting/diarrhea. You could add a probiotic to her diet, like Fortiflora or Proviable and see if that helps. You could also withhold food for the day and then feed her a bland diet, like chicken and white rice for a few days. If the diarrhea clears up then you can change back to her dog food but if the diarrhea continues she needs to be examined by a vet to determine the cause. Your vet can run a fecal test to look for parasites and then prescribed medications to help with the diarrhea.
