Poor Echo! There could be a couple of things going on with him. He could have a respiratory disease or allergies causing the sneezing. The runny poop could be due to intestinal worms, a GI illness, eating something rotten, or a foreign body. Given he has a couple of things going wrong, I would have him seen by a vet in the morning. The vet can diagnose the cause of his symptoms, and can treat him for it. I hope this helps!
