7 day old lhasa apso puppies

Here are Penny's pups 1 week old update.
Right on queue each puppy has doubled their birth weight. Penny is doing well, she is a little thin but that's normal she is eating well and the puppy's are fat and healthy so she is doing a great job. She has already gained control of her bladder and is being vocal about wanting to go out again. Penny has started going for walks again just a short one to help her get back into shape, exercise also stimulates the loss of blood from the womb that takes about 2 weeks. 
The puppies are louder and vocal when hungry or cold and their ears are just opening up so they can now hear their surroundings. They are also shuffling around their pen on their tummy's beginning to strengthen their muscles for the task of walking which will follow in the weeks to come. Their little noses have started to go black too.
Lhasa Apso penny with her puppies 7 days old, under the blanket is a warming pad and we also have a hot water bottle in their all day as well and two hot water bottles at night the room is heated so its really warm. The puppies are weighed and checked daily and penny is cleaned to prevent infection in her teats or germs passing to the puppy's for now she is cleaning them but soon there will be too much mess and we will wash them daily for her. her bedding is changed once a day at the moment. Penny and her pups are in a room of their own until they can walk then they move to a busy part of the house in a big pen to start to experience life as a pet dog, and start paper training and weaning.
