If you are keeping a dog, you should understand its way of life, habits, and physiology, and love and be responsible for it until the end of its life. You should also be considerate of residents in your neighborhood and people who aren’t fond of animals.
If your dog pees or poos on a walk outside, it will dirty other people’s private land or public spaces. Form the habit of going for a walk after your dog goes to the toilet at home. If you can’t avoid your dog pooing on a walk, please pick it up and bring it home. If your dog pees and you just pour water from a bottle on it, the urine will spread on the asphalt and some people will be uncomfortable with this. After using a pet sheet to absorb the urine, pour water over the area so there is no lingering smell, then use a pet sheet again to absorb this so the water doesn't spread.
Walking your dog off-lead is very dangerous; there is a possibility that your dog could harm other people or dogs, and there have even been cases of fatalities from traffic accidents. For the safety of both dogs and people, make sure you walk with a lead. If you have a long lead, there is a risk that you will be slow to act on the off chance of an accident, or that it will get tangled with other people and dogs, so walk with a short lead. If your lead can change length, please make sure you lock it so it stays short.
To prevent the occurrence of rabies, the Rabies Prevention Act obligates you to vaccinate your dog against rabies once a year in Japan. Once your dog has been vaccinated, you should notify the Health and Welfare Subsection, Residents Support Section of your Regional City Office or the Life Hygiene Counseling Subsection, Life Hygiene Section in Minato Public Health Center. After this, you will receive a vaccination tag, which you should put on your dog’s collar, etc.
If you live with a pet, you must also think about pet disaster prevention measures. For details about disaster prevention measures, visit the Minato City Web.
