If you’re getting a dog, be prepared for the responsibilities that come with it. Make sure that your dog gets vaccinated for diseases like rabies, and protect your dog from fleas and ticks with medication. Spend time with your dog, and never leave it alone for long periods of time. After all, they like to have companionship, too. Walk or exercise with your dog at least once a day. This will keep both of you strong and healthy. Last of all, make sure to give your dog the right amount of food and water. They’re going to need a lot of water in hot weather just like you. 5
