Secondly, how early can you bath pups? Ours is very stinky, so I presume she's not been bathed yet.
yes id stay outside with him/her until they do a wee/poo. s/he needs to get the idea and when they do a wee or poo you give them lots of praise and fuss!
we just got Milly yesterday and the breeder said she bathed her in the morning so i guess its ok to bathe them this young (8wks) or you could get grubby wipes from p@h
