Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | You shouldn't use a talc-based powder of any kind - make sure it's cornstarch based Baby Powder. You don't want him inhaling talc. And like Yorkiemom asked, what is the smell?

YT 1000 Club Member | Just my opinion but I would not use baby powder of any kind but puppy wipes instead (they come in baby powder scent). You can also use unscented baby wipes and spray on puppy cologne which you can purchase at any pet store.

| It should be OK to bathe him, just be careful that he doesn't get water in his eyes or ears
