EP59: RSPCA WA: On The Frontlines of Animal Welfare
Friday, 6 February, 2026

This episode is a big one!Not loud. Not shouty.But important. 👀We sat down with Deb King, Animal Welfare Policy Research Officer at RSPCA WA, to unpack one of the most common (and most misunderstood) arguments we see on our posts 👇👉 “What about how many dogs the RSPCA euthanises?”So let’s be crystal clear.💔 RSPCA is not causing the crisis...they are dealing with the fallout.They care for animals who are abused, neglected, traumatised or dumped. Animals who arrive already suffering.RSPCA WA deals with the most vulnerable cases after everything has already gone wrong.Meanwhile, the dog racers claim their animals are “elite athletes in peak condition”… yet dogs keep dying on track. In this episode we talk about:🐕 Why RSPCA’s work is science-led, not emotive📊 Why transparency (or lack of it) matters💥 On-track injuries, fractures and deaths🧠 The myth of “inaction” and what actually happens behind the scenes🤝 Why improving welfare requires facts, not whataboutismIf you’ve ever seen the RSPCA used as a shield to defend racing, this episode is for you.If you care about greyhounds, evidence, and accountability, make sure you have a listen!Thanks to our greyt sponsors Henry Houndwear https://henryhoundwear.com.au/#TalkingCouchPotatoes #GreyhoundWelfare #EndGreyhoundRacing #RSPCA #AnimalWelfare #WhatAboutism
