My dog has liquid diarrhea for 3 days. Is an emergency vet needed?

Question

Hi there, it is now the third day my dog is having diarrhea. The stool is completely liquid and I have to take him out every 3-4 hrs. Ive booked an appointment with my vet it that wont be until tomorrow. Should I take him to the emergency?

As long as he is his normal self you don't need to take him to the emergencies, it can wait to tomorrow, just make sure he always have water available as a dog with watery diarrhea tend to get dehydrated pretty fast and will usually drink much more than usual.
