Eyes and ears open, but sight and hearing are limited. Tail wagging begins and the puppies begin to control body functions.
Look! The puppies eyes are open! Its always an exciting time when the puppies open their eyes. They started opening slowly about 4 days ago. As their world opens up to them, they also develop better motor coordination and start lifting themselves off the floor with their legs, for a short walk. They still are developing their strength and balance.
This week I set up a puppy pen in the nursery for the litter. But for the sake of photos, I thought I would put them back in the baby pool.
This worked out fine for a few minutes...
...Until Coco was preoccupied with giving little sister a bath and one little brother decided to make his escape!

It only takes one to ruin it for the rest...LOL....so I put them right back into their puppy pen!
Coco and the puppies don't mind being in the pen. I have a nice cozy fleece for them to cuddle up in. Coco settles down quickly with her puppies. Before long they are back to taking a nap.
