It sounds like it's time to bring Dolly to your vet. GI upset, obstructions, illnesses, parasites, etc are all potential causes of long-term diarrhea. If you can, bringing in a stool sample to your visit can help your vet check for the most common parasites/illnesses that could be causing it. Your vet can then provide treatment as needed such as changes in diet, probiotics, dewormers, medications, etc.
