The vets my family and I have asked in the past have told us that washing dogs with shampoo usually isn't necessary, considering they clean themselves. But, if they stink, you can probably find these things called "bath wipes" somewhere, like a pet store. We use those on our German shepherd (who smells really bad at the moment, too... I should use one on him). Just taking a brush to him sometimes helps, too.
If you really want to use shampoo, definitely use something very gentle and definitely wash it out very, very thoroughly. The dog we had before the shepherd almost ended up dying long before he really did because of an infection caused from not washing out the shampoo in his fur. Unfortunately, I can't explain how that caused an infection.
