Bathing a nursing dog

Question
Can I bathe my yorkie 4 days after she gave birth?  Can I use dog shampoo on her?

Answer
Sure, you can bathe your dog.  Make sure that you dry her completely and that she is warm before allowing her to go back to the puppies.  If her body temp is low, then she will not be able to warm the pups.  If her milk temperature is low, then the pups will get colder when they suckle.
