I know this is not what you are requesting, but, I think you should schedule a visit to the vet (if you haven’t already) for the initial puppy checkup and evaluation.
Below is an excerpt from http://www.petsplusfl.com/pages/Puppy-Vet-Visits.html
Young puppies receive protection from diseases in their mother’s milk. Unfortunately, this protection begins to fade when your puppy is between six and twenty weeks old, making the need for vaccinations and veterinary care extremely important during this time. Make an appointment as soon as possible so your new puppy will get the medical treatment it needs.
Getting Rid of Unwanted Guests
The first visit to the veterinarian should be done at approximately six to eight weeks of age. It is best to bring in a small, fresh fecal sample in a plastic bag for the vet to look at to see if there are any intestinal worms. It is not uncommon for puppies to pick up worms from their mother and/or from outside. Deworming is usually done, whether worms are detected or not, at the first visit and the next visit four weeks later just to be on the safe side since intestinal worms are so common. Don’t worry, worms are common, but very easy to treat.
