Without a physical exam, we cannot determine if everything is "okay". 40 day sis too young to be separated from the mother and litter. Ideally, a pup should not be separated until about 8 weeks of age. That said, the diarrhea and partial anorexia are concerning in an unvaccinated puppy. Have him seen by your veterinarian today. Submit a stool sample to diagnose intestinal parasites. Parvovirus infection should also be ruled out. Supportive care (IV or subcutaneous fluids, antibiotics, anti-diarrheals and parenteral nutrition) may be indicated.
