My puppy has really bad diarrhea :(
 He's all most ten weeks old when I got him he was almost potty trained but the last week and a half I just cant seem to take him out enough i.e.. 4 or more times an hour. He's very playful and full of energy he had a vet check up 3 weeks ago with the last owner (I have the vet records) and everything was fine. He's on puppy chow gets NO table scraps at all. It changes from puddy like to watery and back again I'm taking him to the vet monday
I'v tried pumpkin and sweet potato's
fasting him 12 hours(I wake up twice a night to take him out and there is still 4 or more piles) and pepto and nothings helping
I live in TX I dont know if that will help  Some
I know he's not dehydrated i'v checked SOS!

Have you changed the brand or flavour of his food at all? Has he recently been wormed? It is also possible that he is eating too much at once. My dog had very loose motions and the vet suggested spreading the food over 4 meals instead of three and the problem stopped instantly.

What breed, ie: large, medium or small. Also, what kind of puppy chow?

Typically, dogs get diarrhea once in their lifetime so its no wonder that your dog has it. Just like cigwyllt, it might have something to do with what he's eating. So try to check on those.
As far as my experience goes, it didn't ended pretty good when I encountered your problem.

Dogs will get diarrhea far more than once in a lifetime. As with humans, intestinal disorders, bad food etc. happen far more often than just once in a lifetime.
