So my puppy has had diarrhea for a couple of days but hes still energetic and he plays and eats normally but it didn't start happening till he got his shots at the vet and I thought it might have been since I switched his food to fast but hes on the second bag of it so I don't know what to do???

The most common reason for diarrhea In a puppy is gastrointestinal parasites like roundworms or diet. I would make sure your vet has checked a fecal sample on Bucky and he does not have parasites. IF he is acting normal and parasite free you could try a bland diet of boiled chicken and white rice for 24 hours. IF the diarrhea does not clear up, you start seeing blood, or Bucky starts acting ill I would take him to the vet right away. Some viruses like parvo can present with just diarrhea. I hope that helps
