Just a update. She is doing better today she ate the yogurt like it was nothing. And she has her color back also. She is very playful again but still not completely. Her weight is back and she also wants out of her kennel but doctor said not tell tomorrow after visit. I gave her chicken and rice she like to have died when she got the first taste she loved it. Thanks for all the help keep you posted.
One last comment on thread - there are been excellent advic by all. I would just want to emphasize that when dogs (especially puppies) have water diareha it is criticle to rehydrate them.
Next time you visit your Vet ask him to demonstrate what the skin of a dehydrated dog looks andf acts like - so you reconginzer it.
When they have diarehah we will offer full cans of chicken broth or beef brooth (whicheve the pup likes) a couple of cans a day - alonge with a clean fresh bowlk of water down all the time.
We are always prepared to administer Sub-Q fluides. Small 8 week old pups can get as 100 CC sub-q just under the skin in the back one or sometimes twice a day.
Don't forget the canned pumpkin that has alread been mentioned.

All new owners would do well to follow that suggestion about asking the vet at any visit to show them how to assess hydration. It's easy, but describing it on the internet is not. Once you are seeing (for example) pale gums, the pup is in danger and needed to be at the vet for fluid support already.
Thank you Ed. She is doing better the vet said she is ok again. Her stool is back to normal and she is hyper. She is very happy again she does not like the meds at all. I am so thankful for everyones help she is still on the chicken and rice for 2 more days.
