What are you feeding him?

When mine have diarhea, I start them on a little rice and lean ground beef. He should be doing a little better by now.

Most a/b's take 48-72hrs to get fully going...

just be sure he's taking liquids/water and you can add some starch to his diet in the form of cooked rice or pasta if you wish.

I would ask the vet for some Tylosin,

They firm the stool almost immediatly, after two pills it should be firm. Some people don't like to give them to puppies, but Pugsley started them when he was 10 weeks old. All of my guys have had some time or another.
