You usually want to wait 6 weeks before washing mom. If she was mature at the time of giving birth to her puppies, she should know how to clean herself so the babies can have clean suckling space. Additionally, its best to not treat her with any medications while she is breastfeeding as anything can pass along to the babies. When you do give her a bath, use only mild shampoo as she is still healing from the birth herself and you don't want any irritation for her around or up in her private area. I would try oatmeal bath, but only after 6 weeks and only after you have seen that mom is comfortable leaving babies for a short period of time without freaking out. Hope this helps!!

∙ 16y agoyou should wait anywhere from 4-6 hours. The mother needs some time to be with them beore you touch her or the babies. Let her nurse her pups for about 5 hours and then you can wash the dog!

The mother canine will tend for her young ... it's best not to handle these puppies until they are "weaned" from their mother - about eight weeks after birth. If the parent dog is not doing this, contact your veterinarian for advice.
