My puppy is always getting into things and getting dirty. When I got
Him he smelt like manure so I bathed him, then he rolled in poop so I bathed him, yesterday we went for a hike through the forest and he must have rolled in something dead because he STUNK, so he got a bath, I just woke up and he is now covered in some sticky stuff (I'm assuming it's coffee), is it okay to be bathing him this often?

Yay puppyhood :rolleyes:

It's not really a good idea to bathe a dog too often, it can damage their skin, but, if he's getting into stuff and getting dirty than you don't have much of a choice.

Make sure to use a mild dog shampoo, and don't use too much. Also make sure to rinse him very well, shampoo residue can cause irritation.

I'm even more convinced that there's beagle in him. Beagles love to roll in everything and anything they can find. Welcome to a challenging breed, but the rewards are great. :)

Haha I'm just glad he hasn't started howling! He definantly is noisey though!

I'm using a mild puppy shampoo and only use it on his back (his legs and tummy sit in the water so they clean themselves..

He is definantly a challenging puppy, but he already has AMAZING recall, yesterday he went chasing after a deer I whisled and called him and he stopped dead in his tracks and came and seen me!

-- just reasearched beagle and it says that they usually have poor recall when game is involved, so if he is beagle I hope this doesn't change as he gets older and his prey drive kicks in!

Maybe you can also use the doggie wet wipes if the smell hasn't gone sking deep.:)

What breed of dog?
Pet wipes are great for short coated dogs.

For longer coated dogs you can buy waterless shampoos. They are in a spray bottle usually and you just spray it on the area (avoiding the skin) and rub until it lathers up and foams like regular shampoo then you towel dry. They don't irritate the skin like regular shampoos if not rinsed properly, but even so you still want to only use towards the end of the hair as any sort of cleansing product can still dry it out.

I'm not to sure on the breed, I wad told boxer rottie, but alty thinks beagle, and his toes are webbed, I'm thinking beagle lab.

How much does he weigh right now Emily?

Here's my beagle as a puppy.

I think you'll see the resemblance to yours.

33552

This was chewy at 12 weeks.

I definitely see beagle in your puppy, based on the pictures you posted before, but he's most definitely a mix of beagle and something else.

I'd bet money there's no boxer or rottie in him though.

He probably weights 10 pounds, his vet called and his appointment was rescheduled for next week now, so I'll know forsure then. (I don't have a scale but duke is 18 pounds and he is almost half the weight)

And by the way, Chewys adorable :)
