  To raise a pet requires time, patience and dedication. If you took on the commitment of having an animal at home, pay attention to the hints below. They can help you to have a healthier relationship.
  Twelve advices to become a good pet's owner:
 

1- Vaccinate your dog annually;

2- Walk your dog everyday. This way he is going to get exercised and will socialize with other dogs and persons;

3 - Offer to the animal a well-balanced food, made for dogs, avoiding giving him home-made food;

4- Keep his place always clean and with fresh water at his disposal;

5- Take him to the veterinarian when he gets sick. Do not try to medicate him;

6- Give your pet medicine to kill worms (vermifuge) periodically.

7- Always use a collar and a leash when walking him;

8- Put an identification in the collar of the your dog, in case he gets lost or run away;

9- Poop and scoop at public places and streets;

10- Be extremely careful when you have watch dogs: basic training, high walls, gates always closed, use of leashes and a sign indicating there is such a dog at your place. That can avoid your dog to injure people or other dogs;

11- Not allow your animal to mate unjudgedly, generating a great number of street dogs.

12- Do not allow your dog to wander in the streets.

  If you already do everything, congratulations! You are a responsible owner. If you do not practice it yet, take the "responsible possession" as your conduct. We are sure that you, your dog and your community have a better relationship.
