You should not have a dog if you are not adapted to look after it. vs You should not have a dog if you are not arranged to look after it.

Both phrases are understandable, but the first one is more commonly used and sounds more natural. The word 'adapted' in the first phrase fits better in the context of being prepared or suited to take care of a dog.
