My 8-week-old puppy has a bad smell. Is it okay to bathe him?

Question

Hi.. Further to my earlier question about my 8 week old Jack Russell Puppy, I would like to know if I could possibly give him a ONCE OFF Bath to get rid of the "Bad Smell" he acquired from his previous owner, who had too many dogs, not kept very hygienically. Thanks Frank. Pet's info: Dog | Jack Russell Terrier | Male | unneutered | 5 lbs

Hi, a one off bath will not be the end of the world. You need to use warm water, a shampoo that is formulated for young puppies and make sure you dry him up completely afterwards. Keep the bath time short and avoid ears and eyes.
