Hi. Well we brought our pup home at 8 weeks and he had been bathed by the Breeder for us. We have since then bathed him approximately every 2 weeks since then...keeps them sweet smelling..and doing it at a young age also helps them get used to being bathed etc. Also trimming etc. Although my Dustie doesn't like his nails done..I have to try to do them when he is sleepy in stages etc.

So if I were you I would bathe the pup now...and keep up the good work.. At 11 weeks it is o.k. to do so...so don't worry...just be gentle with him and you will do just fine..!!
