Many people don’t know they are treating their animals cruelly. Here are some tips from our Inspectors on how to treat your animals humanely:
- Always provide proper and sufficient food, care and housing for your pet
- See a vet if your animal is sick or injured
- Do not torment, beat, kick or over-work an animal
- If you hit an animal on the road, stop and help the animal. Notify it’s owner or the RSPCA
- Do not abandon any animal
- Do not tether or chain up a dog
- Exercise your pet daily
- Never put an animal in the boot of your car
- Secure your dog on the back of a truck or Ute using a dog restraint and ensure the animal has shelter from sun and rain
