My puppy will be 8 weeks old on Sunday , is it okay for my puppy to go to PetSmart for a bath and nail clipping? PetSmart said he only has to be 8 weeks .. he gets his 8 weeks shots on Monday .

I really would not take him in for a bath and nail clipping until he has had all his vaccinations (3 courses plus rabies). There is too great a danger that he picks up a disease while he is not protected by vaccines yet.
