Puppies normally open their eyes at 10-14 days. If they go more than 18 days, or if they look swollen or have signs of pus you should see the vet.

Have you started deworming? That should start at two weeks.

Have you been clipping their nails? That should be done weekly.

With all due respect, this is all stuff you should have been learning long before she ever whelped - in fact before she was ever bred.
