My understanding is coccidia is an intestinal parasite and can be very tought of tiny puppies. Did the vet give him some med to take?? Lil Bit did have the same thing...I had frequent episodes of the hypoglycemia also with her....
She did tend to have 'runny poops' (from the coccidia) and I think that is where the problem with dehydration came from.
After a few days on the med and being attentive to giving Nutracal and making her eat things got alot better.
You may want to put some gatorade mixed with water in the bowl and maybe even a spoon of clear Karo syrup....that should help with both the dehydration and sugar issues.
Once the coccidia clears up you should see him get much better.....try to keep him a warm place to cuddle and relax.....he doesn't need any additional stress.
