Don't expose your puppy to other dogs or to the ground. Don't take your puppy on walks unless you are the only one walking. I think I remember you are going to use pads so you don't have to worry about your yard, even if its fenced some animals can get in and use it for their bathroom. Beyond that I think you should be OK.

To the OP, I brought my first puppy home at 7 wks and 1 lb. I was with her all the time, retired, and was very careful with her and she did great healthwise. She does have some behavioral problems directly related to leaving Mom and littermates too early but I'm working on it.
