Rspca Is Not Doing What Is Best For The Animals, People Or Community

[DMA]

This is a video, which surfaced at Youtube today (Thursday), by a local Hunter Valley "Dog Whisperer" called Nathan Barnes. He has come out hitting with a massive claim covering various issues in respect to the RSPCA in general & likewise in respect to the RSPCA facility at Rutherford in NSW.

To quote from the Youtube page

Dear members of the animals loving public,

Enough is Enough RSPCA..., you can not continue to breach the laws you enforce,... make up illegal policies, misappropriate money donated to you,... unjustly remove staff / volunteers or members of the public, without reason or consequence from the community who fund your organisation.

My name is Nathan Barnes, speaking to you with grave concern for the animals and ANYONE who is associated or involved in the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals otherwise know as (RSPCA).

Please do not think that I hate the RSPCA or have any hidden agenda, I just want them to be accountable for their actions.

People may not know this but the have NO governing body at any level, Local, State or Federal who they have to justify ANYTHING too. They are Autonomous.

Considering all the money and responsibility the RSPCA have with no one to answer to, this should be looked at.

Nathan spoke out last year when there was a change in policy for dogs undergoing behaviour modification.

To be honest, I don't know of any Victorian shelters who pay a behaviourist to work with dogs who fail the temp test. RSPCA NSW seems to be ahead of Victoria in that respect?
