I was just reading through a link on hypoglycemia and it mentioned it could be caused by coccidia, giardia or other parasites. Are you sure all is well on that end? The runny poo tells me that something is still wrong or you might be overdosing him on the Nutrical. Put him on boiled chicken and rice until the stool firms up and feed small amounts every 2 -3 hours. Also, black is an indication of blood in the stools which could come from a hookworm infestation. It would also cause anemia which might be the pale gum reason. The meds for coccidia don't actually kill the parasite - it just keeps them from reproducing until the pup's own immunity system can overcome them. Maybe he needs another course of antibiotics or maybe he has another parasite and needs a different medicine.

Keep in close touch with your vet and breeder until you can figure out what is going on with this baby.
