Best Answer

When you bring home a puppy, give her an occasional bath even if she doesn't need it, just so she'll get used to it. If she's straight from the shelter, she'll most likely be stressed at all the changes, so be gentle and quick, use a lot of treats, talk to her gently but firmly, and make it as nice a bonding time as you can.

Experts say you can bathe a puppy after it is a few weeks old, but be careful how you do it. Be gentle, as you would with a baby. Make sure you keep the puppy warm when bathing it: a warm room, warm water (not hot, but comfortable), soft and fluffy towels, and warm air from a blow dryer. And never let a puppy go outside if it is still wet.

It varies by breed, so consult a veterinarian or provide the breed of the dog.

Different lifestyles also dictate when it is "ready" to be bathed.

You should bathe your puppy/dog 4~8 times a month.

You can get a 2 drawer file cabinet at Walmart's online store. The oak model costs 69 dollars, and there are several other colors to choose from, such as alder and black ebony.

How many times a month should a pit bull puppy be shower?

if its under 6 weeks its not that good to bathe it but it wont hurt it and if it is under 6 weeks you should only bathe it when necessary. If its 8 weeks or older you should bathe it every 2 to 4 unless necessary to do before that. If you bathe a dog to much you can get rid of there natural 'scent' (the scent helps the dogs to identify each other) I bathe my dogs every 10 days and that keeps them smelling good. If the dog is indoors all day and is only outside for like an hour the whole week you don't need to bathe it so often. My dogs are outside more than 6 hours a day (if the weather is good) so therefore i need to wash them more often.
