Watery diarrhea is concerning with a puppy, because they can quickly become dehydrated. It's best to have her seen by a vet soon to prevent this. If the mop has a floor cleaning agent in it, then this could be the cause of the diarrhea. Otherwise, I would be worried about an infection. Puppies can get some rather severe infections, so it would be best to have her seen by a vet in the next 24 hours.

I hope that helps and Blue gets better soon.
