__Responsibilities__
OWNING A PET - IT'S A LIFETIME COMMITMENT
The Care4Pets organisation takes in over l,000 unwanted animals every month. This is made up of cats, dogs and rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters. Many of these animals had owners who gave them up because no one had the time to take care of them. Some of these pets were even abandoned on the street to fend for themselves.
Owning a pet is a lifetime of commitment (up to ten years or more if you own a dog or a cat) involving considerable responsibility. The decision to acquire one therefore, should be made by the whole family. Without full agreement by everyone, the pet could end up unwanted.
Puppies and kittens are so adorable, it is easy to understand why adults and children alike would be attracted to them. Unfortunately their cute looks are often a disadvantage, because people purchase them without consideration and the knowledge on how to take proper care of them.
Basic points you should keep in mind before adopting a puppy are :
--an annual dog licence in accordance with government regulations
--its annual vaccination against major dog diseases
--toilet training
--regular grooming and bathing
--obedience training.
Of course don't forget you should feed your pet a balanced diet which is available in pet shops or supermarkets.
Socialisation (many dogs are kept confined in cages or tied up to stop them from dirtying the garden or from chewing on shoes - this is wrong) is very important
in addition to a daily dose of exercise, affection and play.
Reading up on the subject beforehand is another important requirement and will guide you towards being a responsible pet owner. Selected pet shops and major book stores would provide books on the care of various breeds/pets.
