Dogs usually smell bad when they have infections of the ears, skin or mouth (usually the gums). Usually this can be solved by locating the source of infection, then treating it effectively. For this, I reccomend taking Brownie to the veterinarian. The vet will easily be able to tell where the smell is coming from and prescribe the best treatment. For now, you can try washing her with a medicated shampoo (can find this at the pet store). You can also flush the ears with a product from the pet store. There are some videos on YouTube that give good tutorials how to do this right. I hope that helps and the smell issue gets taken care of soon.
