The RSPCA do amazing things - they save animals every day from a meaningless life; from a painful life.
One of their key campaigns is the Five Freedoms.
Freedom from hunger and thirst
# by ready access to fresh water and a diet to maintain full health and vigour.
Freedom from discomfort
# by providing an appropriate environment including shelter and a comfortable resting area.
Freedom from pain, injury or disease
# by prevention or rapid diagnosis and treatment.
Freedom to express normal behaviour
# by providing sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal's own kind.
Freedom from fear and distress
# by ensuring conditions and care which avoid mental suffering.

This is Adam - although he didn't come from the RSPCA he is a rescue dog. We don't know his history as he was randomly found wandering the streets in Ireland - he was shipped to England to a Labrador charity in Hampshire. We gave him a new home the day he arrived in England. He has a bad limp though suffers no pain - the Vet believes he may have been hit by a car, and he had to have some teeth removed. When we adopted him you could see all his ribs, but within a few weeks we had him at a healthy weight. We've been very lucky with Adam - he's fantastic with the children and is no trouble at all.
