SSPCA Total waste of time. Officer for our area is unprofessional to say the least. It seems if there's a photo opportunity or money involved though, they're there like a shot but ask them to help with neglected animals then they couldn't care less. The outfit is a joke now, rotten from the top down, due to low staff morale causing staff shortages and it's the poor animals who are suffering. Take the Collie dogs by us who are caged all day, no food, water or human interaction (except when they swear at them) a breed that NEEDS regular exercise/stimulation but never been walked in their lives/played with/exercised/talked to, kept in a really unsuitable, small area, dirty, smelly, very overgrown with weeds poisonous to animals if ingested and who are at this moment standing saturated in torrential rain (for the last 2 hours) barking, shaking and pleading to get into the dry but their heartbreaking cries are being ignored, as usual, by the idiots who are blessed to have them and they think it's funny. Left walking around their own mess for 17 hours a day and then thrown into a manky locked kitchen for the other 7 hours, only for the same every single day. Call SSPCA, woman comes out... once.. We thought the dogs would get justice/rehomed because they really are badly mistreated but they see her van pull up the front, they drag dogs inside via a side door and then put on an act worthy of an Oscar, saying dogs are "walked" every day, "kept inside" etc.. Utter Lies!! .. and when she drives off, out to the cage they are thrown again. Call again and she couldn't care less as they did a complete number on her first time and she believed their dishonesty. Didn't even ask to see/ hear the evidence we had or even look at the filthy caged area where they spend their miserable lives (the first thing I myself would have investigated). Now mailing a complaint to the Ombudsman with LOTS of evidence ignored by SSPCA. Some of these individuals shouldn't be working with animals as they are obviously not true animal lovers, it's 'just a job' .. Many years ago, I used to admire these people but not anymore as we hear of /see animals suffering on their watch every day. SSPCA is no longer fit for its original purpose. We used to give a large amount of money monthly but will now NEVER contribute/listen to their campaigns again due to this officer and also hearing it's the same story over the whole of the country.. They try and tug at our heartstrings with their TV ads to get our money but these ads are not true to life at all in our County.. Condoning animal neglect and abuse (not only these poor dogs) after many complaints from several people, means our money will not be given to them.. ever and we will never recommend them. Don't work for an outfit that's supposed to be pro animal if you obviously don't genuinely care about them and try listening PROPERLY when the public (your eyes and ears) give you honest information that they are being badly mistreated!
