Our Work The work of RSPCA West Dorset
Branch falls in to two categories. Firstly we assist with the
payment of veterinary bills (Welfare Work), and secondly we find new homes
for animals whose owners are unable to continue looking after them.
To qualify for assistance with
vet bills you must meet the following criteria:- 1. You must live within the
Branch area (if you do not live in the West Dorset area, please check our
contacts page for details of how to find your own Branch) 2. You must be in receipt
of (a) Housing Benefit or (b) Council Tax Benefit The Branch encourages people to
have their animals neutered and offers financial assistance to those
owners who meet the above criteria. There are set amounts we can
contribute towards the cost of neutering:- £10 for a male cat £15 for a female cat £30 for a male dog £40 for a female dog We currently offer to pay one
quarter of the cost of treatment (up to £50 maximum) for other veterinary
treatment. If you are in need of help with
the payment of veterinary bill you must contact the Branch for
authorisation BEFORE going ahead with the treatment. Local vets will
be able to advise you. Please contact
us for assistance and advice. All money is paid directly to the vet by RSPCA West
Dorset Branch and can under no circumstances be given to the animal’s
owner.
