GOAL REACHED 🙌 - THANK YOU TO OUR AMAZING COMMUNITY - YOU ROCK 🤩

Sweet Ace’s home was broken into and he tried to protect ✊his property, but was badly injured, resulting in a horrific injury🩸to his front leg.

He is currently at the vet in Kelmscott (confirmed) and receiving pain relief while his owner tries to raise the funds so he can have surgery.

Well done Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale for phasing out harmful baits to protect our native animals 🦉 and pets. 🐕

🦉We give a hoot!

The Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale is phasing out harmful SGAR rodent baits to help protect our native wildlife – like this tawny frog mouth – (and pets!). 🐀❌

We’re switching to safer options and reducing baiting where possible — because our owls and other birds or animals deserve better. 🦘🌿

Man charged over disappearance of chihuahua named Pablo

A 74-year-old man has been charged in relation to the disappearance of a pet dog in South Bunbury.

Police began investigating the disappearance of the three-year-old chihuahua named Pablo on July 21.

Bunbury acting officer in charge Ryan van der Heide says blood was found in the yard of the property before the man was interviewed.

It’s alleged he made several admissions in relation to the chihuahua’s disappearance.

He's facing several charges, including the unlawful use of a firearm, criminal damage and stealing.

Officers have also seized the 74-year-old's fi****ms but have been unable to locate the remains of the missing dog.

He will face court on August 21.

⛔️ WARNING DISTURBING CONTENT ⛔️

Everyone should be on notice not to give animals to this disturbed individual! Richie Philip McKellar.

This is beyond concerning. If he is sending this to women, it is likely he is up to far worse already. He goes by the name Richie, is apparently 44 and is from the Forrestfield/Midland area.

Be*******ty is not only illegal, it is often related to child abuse and other sickening offences.

Ladies and gents, if you are receiving messages of this nature, please do you part and report it. You may be saving some innocent animals and children from immense suffering.

UPDATE: We have now been sent the link to this guys profile and have his full name (at top). One identifying tip is he is highly religious and into Bonsai’s. His information is being provided to the police and RSPCA. We will also send an email to Labrador breeders in WA. This guy has some serious mental health issues and should be avoided.

This has been reported to authorities.

Please take the storm ⛈️ warning seriously and bring pets in. 🏠 Check on livestock and ensure shelter is available where possible. 👌

G'day, WA!
Hope you're all tucked up somewhere cozy, because it's a wild one out there this morning! If you've looked outside and thought "wow, that wind looks serious," you'd be right.

Our first Hi-Vis satellite image of the day shows that a cold front has well and truly crashed the party, and it's brought some seriously gusty winds with it. How's that line between Yanchep and Guilderton for a dramatic entry? It's the kind of thing you can't ignore, much like a friend who turns up with a drum set to a quiet gathering.

Serious Warning Time: Batten Down the Hatches!
Jokes aside, this weather system is no laughing matter. We've got a SEVERE WEATHER WARNING in effect, and it's making its way across the South West Land Division today. We're talking DAMAGING WESTERLY WINDS of up to 100 km/h, which is pretty fast for a Sunday morning. This front will be bringing gusty showers and even a few thunderstorms along for the ride.

In the past few hours, we've already seen some impressive gusts:
* 111 km/h at Cape Naturaliste
* 104 km/h at Cape Leeuwin
* 100 km/h at Rottnest Island Airport
* 94 km/h at Garden Island

These winds are expected to stick around for most of the day before easing up late this afternoon. So, if you live in or near places like Perth, Bunbury, Kalgoorlie, Albany, or Esperance, you're in the crosshairs. This kind of weather only happens about five times a year, so let's all treat it with the respect it deserves.

And if that wasn't enough, there's also a COASTAL HAZARD WARNING for the area between Bunbury and Jurien Bay. This cold front is whipping up LARGE AND POWERFUL SURF, which could cause coastal erosion and damage to infrastructure. The beaches are absolutely not the place to be today, so stay well away from the water and keep yourself safe.

Stay safe out there, everyone, and maybe put off that trip to the beach for another day!

Rest in Peace George. 🌹

An incredibly generous man who assisted many rescue groups over the years and saved countless lives through his passion for animals.

He was the type of vet who would get up in the middle of the night to help in an emergency, even after a long day in the surgery, and never asked for anything in return.

George’s commitment to assisting rescues to save animals in need is unmatched by any other vet in WA to date and unlikely one we will ever experience again. It is because of his dedication to helping rescues with low cost veterinary work that many were able to continue their vital work in the community.

From all of us and the animals, Vale Dr George Huber. 🕊️
