My 12-week puppy has diarrhea for 24 hours. When to see vet?

Question

My puppy (12 weeks) has had diarrhea for about 24 hours. I just woke up and cleaned up about 10 stools. How concerned should I be? At what point should I take her to the vet? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 16 lbs

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your puppy. I would have her seen by her veterinarian today. That is a lot of diarrhea for her to have and I worry she will become dehydrated from the fluid loss. She will likely need fecal testing and a medication depending on the results. Ensure she drinks plenty of water in the meantime. I hope this information helps!
