poorly 8 week old puppy, help needed

my 17 yr old neighbour fell in love with willow my rottie and has wanted one since i got him, so she went to kennels and brought home a 2yr old male..without doing any research..he started showing aggressive behaviour towards certain members of the family so they took him back to the kennels, he lasted 1 week with them.

the 17yr old then went and bought a 8 week old pup, from a petshop in the middle of a shopping centre. she told me he was fat because the petshop had been feeding him 4 meals a day..she showed me a picture..the poor pups belly wasnt fat but was badly swollen. i went to see the pup and i touched his belly to see if it was hard (which it was) and the poor guy flinched away when i did.
i obviously told them to take him to vets a.s.a.p because at the least i thought it was severe worms, but they didnt..they just bought worming tablets.
the pup has also had diarrhea for quite a few days now, maybe longer actually..i once again told them to take him to vets straight away, i called in yesterday to see what the vet said..but they STILL havent taken him. they said his diarrhea stops for a day, maybe two days at the most so they think hes better but then it starts again.

the puppy also hasnt had any vaccinations yet.

he has a slight weepy eye and just lies about most the day they have told me, seems tired all the time.

i dont know what else to say to them, i have pleaded for them to take him to vets, i have also offered to take him myself. i dont know what else to do? HELP!!!

i think there is something really wrong with the poor little guy, any ideas what it could be anyone??
