Of course this doesn't prove whether there are pictures on the walls 
in there one way or the other, but I would also have thought that DD

Tonks here:

Well now that sounds good. Except what about Kreacher?  Wouldn't he 
be around or listening at the door?  He could not leave the house, 
but he could talk to the portrait. DD is very smart so this must 
have been taken into account. Maybe we just haven't been told. I 
hope that they did something to prevent Mrs. Black from going to the 
Malfoys.
