I think it would be a lot safer to take him camping (so far as healthwise) than it was to take him to Petco at 9 weeks and put him down with other dogs. You really need to be careful having him around other dogs (especially ones you know nothing about) with him being this young. There are probably a lot of possible doggie diseases a puppy could pick up at Petco or Petsmart. I would wait until he's more like 4 months before taking him to one of those.
