Puppy has diarrhea after eating bread, but acts normal. Is she okay?

Diarrhea can be common in puppies, especially if they may have eaten something that they weren't used to, such as bread. However, there are a few other things that can cause diarrhea in puppies, including intestinal parasites, bacterial or viral (such as parvo virus) infection, dietary indiscretion (eating something they shouldn't), or intestinal blockage. If Lovey's stools haven't firmed up in a day or two, or if she starts vomiting or has a decrease in appetite, she should see a vet as soon as possible to get appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
