    2.) To obtain veterinary care at once if he/she becomes sick or injured, to keep current on heartworm medication and vaccination against rabies, distemper, parvo virus, Lyme, corona viruses, and canine flu.
    3.) To obey all animal control regulations governing the area in which I/we live, and to license him/her according to such regulations within one month of adoption.
    4.) To provide him/her with ID and rabies tags, secured to a collar and worn at all times. PAWS does not condone the use of electronic shock collars.
