Poor guy. It sounds like he has a bout of enteritis which can often be caused by intestinal parasites in pups. As long as he is acting normal, eating well, and not lethargic you are ok to take him in tomorrow. A short course of antibiotics +/- dewormer will likely be needed to help resolve his mucousy stool. I hope that your puppy Finn feels better soon! Best wishes and take care. : )
