I would place back on chicken and brown rice with an added probiotic/fibre formula such as fortiflora until the stools have been solid for 5 days then try to gradually introduce a high quality food specially formulated for digestive disturbances such as royal canin intestinal or hills i/d. If it recurs again further tests will be required to identify underlying triggers

Poor Remy! I recommend putting him back on chicken and rice plus fortiflora until 2 days after the signs resolve then slowly introduce a highly digestible formula such as royal canin gastro over the following 10days. A fecal screen to rule out internal parasites would also be recommended
