how old does a puppy have to be befroe you can give it a bath? my little Shih Tzu, Toby, is 7 1/2 weeks old. all the dog and puppy shampoo we can find says for puppies 12 weeks and older. he smells really bad, partly because we are trying to potty train him to use the puppy pads for now, then we'll transition to outside. but he will go once on the pad then lay in it, so he smells really bad. can we give him a bath, and just use no shampoo, or is there something we can do? what about taking him to a groomer for his first bath?
