What is the color of his gums? If the gums are light, that means he is dehydrated (he probably is). If it were me, and it was day 3 of nothing but diarrhea - I would get him to the vet ASAP. It could be giardia or something that needs immediate attention.

Once you get him better/figure out what's going on - I then would tackle getting him off Eukanuba and Science Diet (forever) - and getting him on a premium food. Did you start the SDiet recently? If so, I would discontine that right off the bat.
I agree! Change of diet better quality.
