Pet's info: Dog | German Shepherd | Female | unspayed | 2 years and 5 months old | 50 lbs
My German shepherd has been having diarrhea for the past 3 days now. She ate her normal dog food, but some how got to our tray of Korean bbq and ate half of it. The first 2 days, she needed to go every 2 hours, and now it’s every once in awhile (like normal). But her poop, is still the same diarrhea (liquidy/yellow-ish/slimy). I withheld from giving her any food, only water, for about 24 hours. She’s acting & playing like normal, as if she was never sick. What should I do or feed her?

You can try to feed her some plain boiled boneless, skinless chicken and white rice to help settle her tummy. You can also add some probiotics to her diet like fortiflora or propectalin to help firm up her stool. Since it has been going on for 3 days, I would recommend taking her to your vet soon if she doesn't start to improve. Your vet will be able to give her something to help with the diarrhea and give her fluids if she is dehydrated. I hope this helps!
