Pet Grooming School Owner Gets 6 Weeks' Jail For Abandoning 18 Dogs
24th Sep 2016, by SPCA Singapore
A SMALL WIN FOR THE ANIMALS
This is the first time that someone has been prosecuted for abandoning animals in Singapore. Although the sentence should have been harsher, this is historic because the SPCA has seen countless cases of pet abandonment over the years but due to various reasons, these cases do not end up in court.
Let this be a lesson for anyone thinking of dumping their pets on the street. Abandonment is a crime.
We are also happy to report that all the dogs we took in from this ...

"DOGS AREN'T BORN WITH MANNERS" - WELL NEITHER ARE HUMANS
Garmin's newly launched Delta Smart device claims that it has the ability to "reduce or eliminate unwanted behaviour" through inflicting shock to your pet. http://www.straitstimes.com/world/united-states/do g-zapping-device-raises-howls-of-protest

FROSTY - A PERFECT FIT FOR THE CHEW FAMILY
The Chew family adopted Frosty (previously known as Rick), a lop ear rabbit, from SPCA just before Christmas 2015.
Frosty was initially jittery like most prey animals and would nip the family if they tried to carry him. However, over time, he settled down, relaxed and familiarised himself with the family!
Being litter trained, Frosty roams freely in the Chew family's living room and is often seen lounging around next to the window, enjoying his s...
