    Maybe. Or your dog may end up severely dehydrated and get into trouble. Also, you probably have no idea WHY your dog has diarrhea. If it's parvo, for example, it isn't going to stop until your dog either beats it or dies. If your dog has an overgrowth of bacteria, she needs antibiotics. We use metronidazole to help with diarrhea at the vet hospital. So maybe your dog will get over it and maybe not. I would not let it go for longer than a day, without seeing the vet. If this is a little puppy or a small dog, then I wouldn't even wait a day. Dogs can get into trouble quickly.
