Companion Animals
Companion animals are those animals we bring into our homes, lives and hearts.
With 63% of Australian households incorporating a pet in to the family, companion animals are more prevalent than ever before. From farms to inner city apartments, companion animals are a part of Australian life. Issues range from breeding and supply to daily care - making companion animal welfare an important topic.
