Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 22 lbs
I just got a dog today and she is 10 weeks old. When we bought her she smelled really bad so we decided to give her a wash tonight and we sprayed her with dog spray but she still smells? How do I fix this?

Congrats on your new dog, but I'm sorry Belle is smelly! The smell could be caused by a skin infection, which a bath and a spray won't treat. I would have her seen by a vet first thing in the morning. The vet can diagnose if she is suffering from a skin infection, and can prescribe medication for it.
