My puppy has diarrhea for days but seems fine. Should I wait for vet?

Question

Puppy has diarrhea on and off for 5 days otherwise she is fine (drinking plenty, eating her boiled chicken and rice that I put her on yesterday and playing). She had a firm brown stool this morning but this afternoon it has gone loose and yellowy. She is at the vets Friday for 3rd injection and further working treatment. Should I just wait until then? Pet's info: Dog | Cockapoo | Female | unspayed | 15 lbs

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Diarrhea can be observed with conditions such as colitis, gastroenteritis, dietary indiscretion, intestinal parasites, among many other possibilities. At this point I think it would be ok to wait until Friday as long as Roxy is otherwise doing well as you describe. Good luck and have a great day!
