Holy cow, 2-4 cups of kibble a day?!! Jake is 28 lbs and gets 3/4 cup twice a day.
I'd also suggest calling the vet, but if his attitude/energy levels are normal and he's drinking, they will probably not be as concerned. Kaylee had BAD diarrhea once when we switched her food and once when we gave her one dental chew that didn't agree with her. Puppies can have sensitive stomachs.
For both of these instances, the vet suggested a 24 hr fast (with water available) and then a bland diet (like boiled chicken and rice) by the tablespoon every 2 hours for the first day. Then increase size and duration between meals. If the diarrhea doesn't return, start mixing in his regular food.
So, while you're waiting to call the vet, I'd start making some rice.
I'd call the vet and make sure he's not having an allergic reaction to the shots...
Hi Samantha, go and take his temperature. The problem with diarrhoea is dehydration, make sure he replenish the water loss. As far as allergies goes, make sure your home is not too dry, turn on the humidifier. Change your central AC filter, leave a damp towel next to your door, wipe him down upon each entering. Use saline to clean his eye.
Would you mind sharing what he put inside his mouth for the last 24 hours? that may give you an idea what could cause the diarrhoea, treats, food...etc.
