RSCPA Rescue Me Adoption Day - October 3

sad-dog-in-crate


This year again, the RSCPA is celebrating our furry friends on World Animal Day Weekend, October 3-4, with another PAWsome event - the Rescue Me Adoption Day. The weather forecast is looking great! So make sure you don't miss out.

After the success of the inaugural event in 2014, on Saturday 3 October, RSPCA NSW will be hosting a mass dog rehoming and pet rescue information day. Working together with other animal welfare and rescue groups from across the state, the main objective for the day is to rehome as many dogs as possible. If you are looking for a new four-legged, furry family member, make sure you put this date in your calendar and come on down to meet the dogs that are looking for a second chance in life. You may be just what they have been waiting for!

Even if you aren’t looking for an addition to your pack at this stage, there will be lots of other activities for you on the day – RSPCA Merchandise, food stalls, dog agility course, pet product expo stalls and much more.

Bicentennial Park is a dog friendly area, so please bring your best friend along (on lead) to meet any potential friends. There will be plenty of staff and volunteers on the day to help you and Rover find your perfect match.

Put the date in your phones now, as you would be barking mad to miss out on RSPCA Rescue Me - Rescue Dog Adoption Day.

When: 10am - 2pm, Saturday, 3 October 2015

Presentations for these include squinting, pawing the eye or face, watery eyes, a discharge from the eye, the eyes can look red or inflammed, the pupil size may be abnormal, or the pet simply appears uncomfortable or in pain. But when is this an emergency and when should pet owners seek veterinary help? Most injuries that appear superficial occur to the cornea. This is the outer layer of your pet’s eye. There are many very thin layers to the cornea and the seriousness of the injury depends on how many of the layers have been damaged. Injuries to the outermost layer can heal quickly with medication in little time. However, the deeper the injury, the greater the chance of scarring or blindness which often requires surgery to prev...
