Check his eyes that they are clear and bright.
While brushing him, check for any new, unusual lumps.
Keep his nails well trimmed.
Provide him with a nice warm, dry spot to sleep.
When he’s oudoors, make sure that he has both sun and shade and that his waterbowl is always available.
Make sure that at the first signs of illness you get your pet to the vet.
Feed him only the best quality kibble there is. Occasionally give him some home-made food. Keep this food simple and nutritious.

If only pet owners would realize that their pets don’t want all those spicy, exotic people foods. They just give a dog a stomach ache and eventually shorten his life. Make sure he always has access to a bowl of cool, fresh water.
