No a puppy has to have had all its shots before you can bathe it which will be around 16 weeks old.
Clarification:
A puppy does not have to have all of it's shots before bathing it, but a puppy's mother usually keeps it clean (by licking them) until it is weaned, around 5 - 6 weeks old, so there really should be no need to bathe it. But if you do need to bathe it you can, just be sure to use shampoo that is made for puppies and do NOT use human shampoo. There are numerous shampoos available for puppies, and they are not expensive, so you can easily find one at stores such as Wal Mart, as well as many grocery stores.
To bathe the puppy, you can do it at the kitchen sink, just be sure to put a towel in the bottom to keep the puppy from slipping and prevent injury. You could also place a plastic basin in the sink instead. Before you begin though, have a towel at hand, and never leave the puppy unattended while in the sink or basin.
Wet the puppy with warm water, apply shampoo and lather well, then rinse with warm water, being careful not to get shampoo or water in it's eyes. Be sure to rinse thoroughly, or the residual shampoo can cause skin irritation to the puppy. Then dry the puppy with a soft towel.
For many puppies, their first bathing experiences can affect how they react to being bathed in the future, so be sure to make it as comfortable and safe for the puppy as possible.
