Blood in stool and anorexia can be poisoning, parasites, or viral disease, but by day 3 it's past the time for induced vomiting, so don't induce. Best to go to a vet; if not, warm it, give glucose-saline, pet antibiotics (amox-clav, bismuth) and probiotics. Tomato-soup-like stool suggests viral infection needing interferon and parvo monoclonal; puppy viral mortality is high, so hospitalization is better.
