Many people like animals such as dogs and cats and keep one or more of them as pets. If you keep a dog or a cat as a pet,you must know how to look after it.

  A grownup dog needs two meals a day―not more. It can eat meat,fish,rice and some other things. Dogs like large bones (骨头) ，but you can't give them chicken's bones. Remember to give them much clean water.

  A dog should have a clean,dry box for sleeping. Washing it once a week is good for its health. If it is ill,take it to a doctor. A healthy dog will bring you more pleasure.
