First checkup: Puppies should be vaccinated starting at 6 weeks. Also learn what signs of illness puppies can display, as they are especiallysusceptible in their early months.
第一次健康检查：狗狗应该在6周大的时候就接种疫苗。同时也可以看看狗狗们都有哪些可能导致生病的迹象，因为它们最初几个月大的时候特别容易生病。

Tracking: Is your pup's ID tag up to date? Be sure it has your current contact information.
追踪：你家狗狗的标签更新到最新的了吗？要确保上面有你的联络信息。

Household hazards: Pup-proof your home, keeping poisonous chemicals and food secured well out of reach. Remember that many "people'' foods are toxic to dogs including chocolate, onions, avocados, and many more.
注意日常危险：如果家里有小狗，一定要把有毒化学物品和安全的食物放到它够不着的地方。记住：许多我们的食物对狗狗来说是有毒的，包括巧克力、洋葱、牛油果以及其他的很多东西。

Potty training: Establish a housebreaking routine and stick with it to help lessen the chances of accidents. Reward your pal whenever he makes it outside for the bathroom.
如厕训练：要做一个管教条例，并且坚持执行，以此来减少事故的发生几率。无论何时，你的狗狗在你卧室外如厕的话，都要给它奖励。

Play time: Make it a point to regularly exercise your puppy. It helps keep him (and you) healthy and happy.
要有玩的时间：要记得带你的狗狗定期锻炼。这能让它们（还有你自己）保持身体健康和身心愉快。
