Most Boxers do not need bathing more often than every 6 weeks or so. If your pup gets dirty-muddy or otherwise- you can use unscented baby wipes or plain waarm water to freshen him up. Bathing too often with soap will dry the skin out.

You should start brushing your dog's teeth once all the adult teeth have come in. You also might want to consider giving your dog dental bones to help with the teeth.
As for washing you should not wash a puppy every week, but once every 4 weeks (2 week minimum). You should brush your dog's fur everyday, and use puppy wipes to help with the fur. If you wash your puppy's fur every week the puppy will loose the natural oils in the skin.

For a short hair dog like a Boxer, about every 4-6 weeks for a bath. Once a week for teeth.

Unless he's really dirty, wash him every few months. Boxers are short haired and usually smell fine. They have natural oils in their skin that you don't want to wash away too often.
You can brush his teeth once or twice a week, with a special dog toothbrush and toothpaste. Don't use human toothpaste! Personally, I don't brush my dogs teeth. He eats Greenies and it keeps his teeth in great shape.

I am not sure, but I guess you should wash him once in every few days, or if you see he needs some washing. You may brush his teeth once it every few days too. But I think that if you brush them to often, they will become sensitive.

bath every three - six weeks depending on how messy he gets. you should get him used to teeth brushing now weekly as well as playing with his paws so when the time comes to get his nails clipped he wont put up a fight. i used to groom dogs and those two things are most important to do with a new puppy. have fun with it.

Dogs shouldnt be washed more than twice a year as they loose all their natural oils. As for brushing his teeth, probably once every two months to get rid of the gunk and make him smell that bit fresher!

A bath once a month is best unless he gets into something and gets really dirty.
Teeth brushing should be done once daily.

I use an electric toothbrush just about every evening on my dog.

You can wash your dog as often as needed.
