Max was about 15 weeks old when we started walking 1 mile in the morning. This was after his shots. Rabies should be done later at 5 - 6 months, but it is important to have the others done before going outdoors. You don't want your pup to contract Parvo or one of the other preventable diseases.
Under 12 weeks -- depending on the size of your pup, you don't want to over-exercise or over-handle. Puppies need rest. Under 3 pounds particularly, you run a big risk of hypoglycemia if the puppy is overhandled.
