I'm not sure what all is in tandoori chicken as far as spices go, but hoping that there is nothing in there that can do harm to her she probably just has an upset tummy. If she is drinking water that is a good sign, although I'm not sure she should be drinking water with sugar/salt in it, just plain water. You can try some pepto, but at such a young age I would call your vet first and ask them. If she's not better by tomorrow take her to the vet like you planned.

is this the same pup that you were dosing with the OTC Hartz dewormer last week??

if i recall, it had diarrhea then too ..... a week is a LONG time for such a young puppy to have diarrhea ..... you really should spring for a visit to the vet......

If there are no other symptoms (fever, pain, vomiting) I'd try a bland diet. 50/50 blend of boiled rice and chicken. Watch her carefully for signs of dehydration. Reintroduce her to her regular food slowly to avoid another stomach upset.
If she's not better in a couple days or her symptoms worsen a trip to the vet is in order.

It could be the cooked bone in the chicken thigh. In a puppy so young, I woudlnt mess around w/ 'serums' (sugar/salt etc) or anything else like that as they can be doing more harm than good, would get her to the vet for a puppy checkup and to get started on her shots - would crate her when you're eating if you can't watch her - puppies have very sensitive stomachs and it's important they dont get diarrhea or throw up as they can dehydrate, as has been mentioned. Also, would not treat her w/ any over-the-counter meds to treat worms unless you know exactly what kind of worms she has (keep in mind some worms are not visible unless under a microscope) and you might be treating her for something she doesn't have. Find a vet who will work w/ you and take payments, would call around tomorrow and not put it off. Good luck.

What the heck is a 7 wk old pup doing roaming around at a party? She isn't even fully vaccinated yet and is still susceptible to Parvo. Quit playing doctor and take your pup to a vet.

It was Friday night that you posted about diarrhea and the Sargents dewormer. It's only Monday now. Take the poor puppy to a vet.
