Answer
Diarrhea in puppies can be caused by many things.  There is the possibility of parasites in any puppy, which the former dewormings may or many not have cleared.  Organisms such as giarrdia are less common and not eradicated by standard deworming protocols.  You may wish to ask your veterinarian to test for these organisms

Viruses can also be a common cause of diarrhea in puppies as well.  Even though he has received the vaccines there is a slight chance of him having a virus.  Food intolerance, pancreatitis and other systemic illnesses can be possibilities as well.  

If the diarrhea has continued then testing would be a good idea to try to find the cause.  Mild food such as boiled chicken and rice is a good meal to use to help with the diarrhea itself.  If the diarrhea has continued please let me know if he is showing any other abnormal signs.

Sincere apologies for the delay as a family emergency kept me away for a time.
