| Youngest bath age recommended? Hi! I was wondering how old puppies should be when they can be bathed? Thanks

| As early as you'd like. If you use a shampoo, I'd use something w/o soap in it, like maybe Tropiclean. The shampoo is coconut based and therefore is especially safe to use on your puppies or kittens. Otherwise, if you're just needing to spot clean them, baby wipes and a warm clean damp rag are a god send! |

| I agree. I ve bathed them as early as 8 weeks. I know my breeder has bathed them before then.

| My pup was 8 weeks old when I got him - and he has had baths since then. He had terrible oily hair - and really needed to be bathed - almost every day -for a while. But he has gotten over that - his new hair that has grown in is totally different and not a problem at all. Carol Jean |
