Answer

when we connect adjective and adjective, we should use で or て
ex)
この犬はげんきでかわいいです - This dog is energetic and cute
この犬はちいさくてかわいいです - This dog is small and cute

When we connect two sentences with verb, we use て form of verb
今日わたしは、とうきょうに行って　買い物をしました - Today I went to Tokyo and i did some shopping

I hope it helps...

Answer

you need to use the ーてform to string adjectives or verbs together.  Have a look at this site
