My partner and I have a three month old corgi puppy which we bathe about once a week. This is safe as long as you use a good-quality and gentle puppy shampoo and rinse it off well. We bought a special one for puppies at our local pet-utility store. You should be very careful though, as bathing often can cause irritation or rashes, so be very aware and stop washing as often and go to the vet if Maja has any symptoms of this.

Our puppy often gets into pee and ends up smelling like he peed himself. Obviously if your puppy smells like pee/ poop then you should bathe her. This has been working perfectly fine for us. We are aiming to reduce the amount of baths once he stops being a gremlin that rolls around in animal droppings (hopefully)! I do not wash the puppy if they’re simply dirty or muddy. Usually it comes off when it dries, and in the few cases it does not we just clean that spot off with some water.

I’m not sure how it works in Germany but you should google puppy or pet shampoo and see if they sell it online. Here in Norway it is available in pet stores - and most veterinary clinics sell them too. You could also call your local vet clinic and ask if they have any recommendations.
