Community Action Days

RSPCA WA Community Action Days are free events designed to help people who are struggling financially to look after their pets.

These events are held at metropolitan parks and reserves, as well as regional locations like Kalgoorlie, Bunbury, Geraldton and as far north as Broome. 

Please check our Events page for details of the next Community Action Day events. Also, make sure to follow us on Facebook or Instagram for details.

Visitors to a Community Action Day event receive:

  • Free health checks for their dogs and puppies
  • Free dog microchipping (*not available for litters or breeders) 
  • Free flea and tick treatments for dogs and cats
  • Free chain exchange - swap your choker collar for a humane flat collar, thanks to Rogz
  • Free pet food for families in financial need
  • Free nail-clipping for dogs
  • Educational information about pet care and responsible pet ownership
  • Dog training advice
  • Free sausage sizzle (not available at all locations)

(The above services are provided subject to availability and while stocks last)

We encourage members of the public to join us with their dogs however, due to welfare concerns, cats and unvaccinated puppies are not able to attend.


We'd like to thank these supporters for making Community Action Days possible.
