It may be getting be on his own and it is starting to slow down. If he is eating and drinking normally and feeling fine I would continue to monitor for further BMs. If they continue loose then ibwiukd get him checked since it has been going on for so long. You can always try boiled chicken and rice and add a canine probiotic to help
