Exactly.

The marines said that after a thorough investigation, that the act was "deplorable" and that the soldier will be disciplined. If after the investigation it was found that the puppy was dead, I am 100% sure that the marines would have mentioned it in their statement.

Besides, anyone who has ever picked a puppy up by the scruff knows that the body positions itself like in the video. If it was dead, it would have been limp. Unless it was recently dead, then rigor mortis would have made it stiff as a board (which it wasn't in that video).
