What should I do if my dog has had diarrhea for two consecutive days?
Diarrhea has many causes—diet, indigestion, gastritis, parasites, infectious disease. Observe energy and appetite; if normal, it's likely dietary—fast, give probiotics, adjust diet. If no improvement, see a vet.
My dog is passing blood in its stool and won’t eat; it got chilled during the recent cold snap and has a cough.
Blood in the stool and loss of appetite can be caused by gastroenteritis, intestinal scratches, pancreatitis, parasites, poisoning, or viral disease. Take your dog to a vet for diagnosis; if it isn't vaccinated, infectious disease should be the first suspect and prompt care is important.

My one-month puppy won’t eat, vomits white foam, and is lethargic.
Not eating, vomiting white foam, and lethargy may be from poisoning, acute gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, parasites, or infectious disease. Being young and unvaccinated, infectious disease is likely; see a vet promptly.
My puppy vomited after eating, was dull on a walk, then twitched and vomited yellow water with diarrhea; ate a little kibble later; yesterday it rained and it sneezed.

My cat has normal spirits and eats, drinks, and sleeps, but has diarrhea; it started as soft yellow stool and now is black watery stool.
Black loose stool can come from improper diet, indigestion, parasites, gastroenteritis, protein intolerance, or intestinal bleeding. Offer easy food and water and use pet anti-diarrhea and mucosa medication; if no relief, get a fecal exam.
