No it should be fine. I would just make sure you get him all of his vaccines and make sure he is socialized and trained properly. It is best to socialize them with other people and dogs when they are young, but you don't want to take the to a public park where you don't know the vaccine history of the other dogs. It is best to take them to a friend's house that has a healthy, fully vaccinated dog to help with socialization. I hope this helps!
