Advice and welfare
We know animals. After all, we’ve been improving their lives for over 200 years. We know that you love animals too. So together, let’s do everything we can to help them live happy and healthy lives. Here, you’ll find tips and advice from our world-leading teams of experts on everything from dog training to how to best help fledgling birds.

Worried about an animal’s health or safety?
Are you concerned that an animal is being cruelly treated or neglected? Or have you found an animal who is sick, injured or trapped? If you can’t easily help them without specialist skills, please tell us about it.

Pet advice
We love our pets. Having a cat, dog or other animal at home has so many benefits. So let’s make sure it’s a great relationship for them too. Here’s everything you’ll need to know to keep your best pet friends healthy and happy for life.

Farm animal advice
We care about all farmed animals – from chickens and goats kept in your garden, to farmed fish and dairy cows. We also campaign to raise farming standards to help all farm animals lead a better life.

Wildlife advice
We use scientific research and practical evidence to inform how we help wild animals. So if you’re looking for expert advice on anything from helping a sick or injured animal to where to find a local wildlife rescue centre, you’ve come to the right place.
