Should I take my dog to the vet? He has had uncontrollable diarrhea since this morning.

Yes that would be best, especially if Leo is lethargic and not eating. If he’s eating and drinking you can give boiled chicken and rice and a dose of pepto bismol. There is a section on this website that you can get the dosage for common over the counter medications. Small dogs can quickly become dehydrated from this much diarrhea so please take him in when you can. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Leo.
