Measure out the dry food (probably 3/4 cup or so per meal?) and add a tablespoon of canned food...mix it all in so he cannot pick it out. Put food down....give him 10 minutes to eat...then pick up bowl till next meal.
When you have set feeding times it's much easier to house train and it also helps with obedience training.
You may just be feeding too much food? or too much canned food. Some pups/dogs do get the runs from too much canned.
I agree a tablespoon of canned pumpkin may get things right...if the diarrhea continues, please get him to the vet.

I do measure it out based on the back of the bag(artimis large breed) and that is about 1.25 cups three times a day with wet food thoroughly mixed in. One thing I do is leave the food down and even put it in the crate if I leave. I just think he should be eating more. I did send a stool sample to the vet and she said the ELISA was negative. He seemed to have liked the purina pro plan large breed he was fed from the breeder.
