Yes, although the training needs to be age appropriate. For a newborn puppy, simply touching the puppy and letting it get used to the smell and feel of humans is plenty - you don't need to pick it up or disturb it. When the puppy's eyes open, you can start holding and gently scratching the puppy all over - ears, belly, back, legs, etc. As the puppy gets better at walking, you should introduce a collar and then a leash; when the puppy is moving around you'll also need to teach it bathroom manners (often called housebreaking). After the puppy has been vaccinated, it should be introduced to people and social situations (PetSmart is a great place for this, since they encourage owners to bring their animals in).
