If your puppy has parvo, it is best to work with your treating veterinarian for care and help. Parvo is a very serious illness that can be potentially fatal and usually requires hospitalization or intensive care for treatment. Diarrhea in parvo can usually be blood-tinged indicating irritation of the digestive tract, or may be greenish in color indicating an increase in mucous in the stool (also a sign of irritation as well as shedding of material in the digestive tract). If your puppy's stool is changing color, it may be in response to the change in his illness or just a sign that his digestive system is still very irritated. It is best to speak with your veterinarian that has seen and is treating him for any further care instructions related to his illness.

Congrats on your new puppy! I'm sorry to say that runny poop isn't normal, and it is concerning that there is a red texture to it. This can indicate blood in the feces, which can have very concerning causes of it. One for example is parvovirus. This is a deadly disease of young unvaccinated puppies, and one symptom of it is bloody diarrhea. This diarrhea could also be caused by intestinal parasites, a change in diet, or GI illness among other causes. Because I can't see her in person to rule out parvo and given the fact that parvo is very deadly and contagious, I feel the best thing to do is take Harlee into a vet immediately. This is something that should be checked out now so it can be treated promptly. I hope this helps, and good luck with her!

Poor Katy. If she had fully recovered from parvo, the likelihood she has it again is rare. Typically dogs are immune to parvo after they get it and recover. It could be she has a problem like a GI illness or intestinal worms. I'd have her checked out by a vet today. Best of luck.

Your puppy needs to be seen by a vet right away. Vomiting and diarrhea in a puppy so young is always concerning, but the symptoms sound suspicious of parvo, which can be deadly to a young pup. Your vet will do an exam and labwork to determine what is causing the symptoms and based on these results will be better able to tell you what is going on and how best to treat it.
