My small breed dog was vomiting bile yesterday and has been having diarrhea accidents for the past two days with bright red blood in the stool. Other than that she is acting normal. Eating and drinking regularly. I don't have money to bring her to the vet. Any clue what it could be?

These signs could be compatible with a colitis, which is an inflammation of the last part of the colon, usually related to dietary indiscretion. As a first approach, I would suggest to start feeding with a bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice in small portion every 6 hours for the following 48hours. Then gradually reintroduce the normal diet over 5 days. I would definitively recommend a veterinary check up if the signs persist or you notice vomiting, lethargy or inappetence.
