I would definetly get him checked out by his local pet. He could have early signs of stomach worms or something as he might need a change in his food. I would first change is food, if that does not work make an appointment with the vet.

This tells you that he is either ill or being fed poor quality food. Check with a vet on both counts.

Your puppy is not well. His bowel movements should be well formed, regular after eating and not difficult. It is likely that he has worms. Make an appointment with your veterinarian as soon as possible. Worms are parasites that rob your pup of nutrients and ultimately his health.
