i have just gotten a 7 week old puppy, well, she is 8 weeks old at the end of this week, and she was baby sat by some family members that smoked and now she smells like smoke and i really dont like the smell and i was wondering what age would be a good time to bath her to get that smell off of her?

Thanks.

you can bathe her now. just make sure the water isn't too hot or too cold and make sure she doesn't catch a draft after the bath

dachielover.. when you bathe her make sure you use puppy shampoo (and conditioner if she is a long-haired dachie), warm water, and have plenty of towels.. make sure you put a towel on her as soon as she's done and towel dry her well.. also try to make the bath as quick as possible.. hope this helps

You could get her drier even by a nice warm blow dry, just make sure its not too close so you don't burn her. My two love the blow drying. They come running to it.
