#dog - #HELP - Puppy lethargic + diarrhea


HELP - Puppy lethargic + diarrhea

I just picked up a new puppy, a dachshund, born on the 22nd day of April, so he's about 3 days away from the 2 month mark. When i picked him up he was already taken away from his mom so I assumed waiting until he was 2 months old at this point didn't make any sense. The puppy seemed slightly lethargic but he was being kept outside in the heat (29°C) and was among 5 or 6 other puppies, all bigger dog breeds. The seller told me that today he accidentally escaped while being fed and ate some of the adult/older dogs' food. When i was bringing him home he had diarrhea in the cab, not very runny but nonetheless diarrhea. He's now sleeping, but has been following me around and playing a bit rught before falling asleep. Did my best to make him drink a lot of water. What should i do? Should i take him to the vet or could this be a one time thing due to him having eaten the others' food?

Sorry for rambling, any answer is greatly appreciated.
