My puppy has diarrhea and now pees a lot. Should I be worried?

Question

Our 10 month teacup yorkie has had diarrhea for 3 days. Vet had us start feeding her Hills I/D canned food yesterday. She vomited once last night but not since. Her stool is still runny but much less frequent today; however tonight she started urinating frequently and it's completely clear. Should we be concerned? Our vet is closed now for the weekend.

I wouldn't be too concerned about increased urination - the canned food has an increased water content and this may be the reason she is urinating more often. If you notice blood in her urine or if she seems to be straining to urinate while passing small amounts you may want to check in with your vet to make sure she doesn't have a urinary tract infection.
