Can we also note how police and rangers handle shooting of animals.

Shooting animals three time…do we need to say more?

More info about this incident here:

Full article: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06-16/cow-shooting-animal-welfare-concerns-boyanup-saleyard/105393516

Last week, a confronting video of a cow being shot multiple times at a controversial WA saleyard was released. The response from authorities? No further action would be taken.

Veterinarian, Dr David Marshall said the incident was a reminder of the need to improve WA's animal welfare standards across the board. "Probably the thing that disappoints me as much as anything is that we still don't have that groundswell to some extent of public feeling to put pressure on our politicians to do more."

WA’s animal welfare laws are outdated – and despite years of promises, the government still hasn't implemented the reforms they promised.

🐮 If you live in WA, please sign the petition calling on the government to pass the reformed WA Animal Welfare Bill: https://www.parliament.wa.gov.au/Parliament/LCePetitions.nsf/ePetitionSignature?openform&pet=25-0012

A win for our pets. 🎉

They deserve their safety and well being to be a consideration.

We hear of too many cases of pets being given away or dumped at pounds (or threats) by disgruntled exes or persons as a form of control and emotional abuse.

The Family Law Amendment Act 2024 provides a new framework for determining ownership of the family pet in property settlements.

Glad these two evil monsters have been named! They tortured the poor innocent puppy until they killed it. 💔 All in the name of so called “training”. 😢

Social media plays a significant role in the increase in animal abuse. The number of so called “dog trainers” getting away with videos of using chains to throw at dogs and hanging them up by their necks continues to grow. Owners are complicit in paying these abusers (women too) to train their dogs, as are the media advertising and promoting their businesses. We received multiple reports of dogs needing to be euthanased after attending a certain bootcamp in Perth due to developing severe and/or unpredictable human aggression. It’s not love and kindness killing dogs, it’s the use of physical punishment which leads to dogs fearing humans. Abuse is abuse!

Just awful to think of what this poor 14 week puppy went through. Let’s hope the magistrate throws them both in jail!

May the puppy rest in peace. 🕊️

A South West couple accused of torturing and abusing their fourteen-week-old puppy have appeared in a Busselton court for the first time this morning.

Nathan James Dekkers and Isabel Maree Busher are facing thirteen charges over allegedly beating and tormenting the puppy and misleading RSPCA investigators.

The accused 26-year-old man and 25-year-old woman were met by a crowd of anti-animal abuse protesters out front of Busselton Magistrates Court.

The pair were not required to enter pleas and the matter was adjourned to July 15 to allow them to seek legal advice.

🐱 PRIVATE REHOME 🐱

This is the lovely Miss Ripley. 😻

She was rescued from a horrible living situation, and has been in loving care for the last 6 months. When she first came to her caregivers she was severely underweight, but is now healthy and thriving. Ripley is a loving and affectionate young lady of approximately 4 years of age. She was very timid, but with time and patience has come out of her shell. She has been fostered with dogs and cats, and while she tolerates them, would definitely prefer a household where she is an only child. She is also sterilised, microchipped and vaccinated.

Ripley is incredibly affectionate, and is being fostered privately in Camillo. Please message RJ on 0420492325 to organise a meet and greet. 🐈

Desexing is a viable solution to stopping unwanted litters.

Our Shire of Dardanup Rangers have picked up two sweet male Kelpie x Blue Heeler puppies wandering around Dardanup.

Unfortunately, these sweet boys do not have microchips or registration. They were seen in the North and South of the Dardanup townsite on Sunday, 23 March.

We’d love to get these little guys back home where they belong! If you recognise them or have any information that could help us find their family, please reach out ASAP.

Help us spread the word by sharing this post—let’s get these boys back to their humans! ❤️🐶
