My question is... does anyone know of a puppy food that might be better for him since he is having these problems. We feed him Eukanuba puppy food now.
Eukanuba is not a good food all around. Try a very high quality food such as Solid Gold, Wellness, Nature's Variety, Chicken Soup, Canidae. You will not find these foods where you bought the Eukanuba so you might have to do some hunting around to find a distributer. You might also want to try wet food. All around wet food is better quality than dry food but again it should be one of those brands i mentioned. Wet food has gone through less processing (it still has the moisture) and dogs tend to just love it more! he may need a mixture of wet and dry to get him to eat regularily!> Good luck.. it can be very scary!

Edited to add: when you change him from Eukanuba to another food, it is normal for him to have diarrhea for a few days so watch to make sure he is drinking
