Hi. Diarrhea can be caused bybalot of things. It is good that she is feeling well and acting normal. I would suspect something she ate, or possibly a common puppy parasite. I would call your veterinarian tomorrow to bring in a fecal sample and to start on some diarrhea medications. I would also feed a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice for 2 to 3 days. Good luck
