Spay It Forward by WA Pet Project

🎉🐕🐾Together, we made it happen – Feed It Forward Campaign Results 🐾🐕🎉

We are absolutely blown away by the incredible support of our community throughout this campaign! 🙏✨ No one plans to struggle, and rising living costs have put real pressure on pet families right here in WA who are doing their best to keep their dogs healthy, fed, and at home.

You showed up to make sure these families have the breathing room and food support they need most! Thanks to your collective effort of buying SavourLife dry food at Petstock throughout June, we’ve reached (and surpassed) our target! 🚀💯

Across Australia, SavourLife is donating:

✨6,250 bags donated
✨Equivalent to 125,000 meals donated

Right here at home, that incredible collective effort means we’ve achieved:

✨1,250 x 3 kg bags donated to WA Pet Project
✨3,750 kg of dog food in total
✨Equivalent to 25,000 meals donated to families in WA.

A simple shop over the last month is now helping keep vulnerable pets healthy and exactly where they belong—at home with the people who love them. 🥰🐕 Thank you to everyone who bought a bag, spread the word, and helped keep people and pets together! 🙌💛

🐾🐕📣BUY A BAG. FEED A DOG IN NEED.📣🐕🐾

No one plans to struggle - and no one wants to choose between caring for their dog and keeping up with essential expenses💛🐾

For pet parents facing sudden financial pressure, access to food support can help relieve stress and give families breathing room when they need it most.

That’s why this June, every SavourLife dry food purchase at Petstock triggers a 3kg SavourLife Essentials donation to community partners like us supporting vulnerable pet parents.

Today is your very last day to shop and help vulnerable families right here in WA! Petstock is open until 6 PM tonight, so there is still time to make a massive difference with a simple shop today!

***Total donations capped at $250,000 retail value.

🐾🐕🙏🏻Help keep people and pets together🙏🏻🐕🐾

Pets are part of the family - but when life takes an unexpected turn, even the basics can become hard to manage. Rising living costs can put real pressure on pet parents who are doing their best to keep their dogs healthy, fed and at home. Sometimes, something as simple as food support can make all the difference💛🐾

That’s why this June, every SavourLife dry food purchase at Petstock triggers a 3kg SavourLife Essentials donation to community partners like us at WA Pet Project supporting vulnerable pet parents.

Together, we’re helping keep pets and people together.

🐾🐕🏡COLLABORATION IN ACTION: Keeping Country Families & Pets Together!🏡🐕🐾

​We are incredibly excited to share how Spay It Forward and SavourLife's Feed It Forward Campaign run through Petstock are teaming up with some amazing local legends to support the heart of our regional communities! 🌾✨

​Through our community contacts, we crossed paths with the incredible Pingelly Youth Centre (PYC)—and we knew right away that our goals aligned perfectly. 🤝 Owned by the Shire of Pingelly and run by the Moorditj Youth Foundation Aboriginal Corporation (MYFAC) in a fantastic joint partnership, this centre is a vital lifeline. From their morning breakfast club for kids on school buses 🚌, to midday community outreach for 17-25 year-olds (including mental health, counselling, and WA Country Health Service) 🩺, to afternoon safe spaces with food assistance and the Parent Pathways program—they do it all! 🌟

​"The Youth Centre sees a range of community members and they try to meet the needs of those people at the time, or they will refer services for the benefit of the youth—which includes families and their pets, because pets are family too. They provide consistent, regular support so families don't reach crisis level." 💛

​This philosophy is exactly why this connection is so vital. Out here in the country, pets are an integral part of the family—just about everyone has a dog! 🐕 That's why we look at community well-being with the understanding that truly healthy communities can only stem from healthy people, healthy pets, and a healthy environment working in harmony. 🌏✨

​While extending our rural pet food help keeps families together at the dinner table 🍽️, Spay It Forward works tirelessly beyond food support. We are on the ground in Pingelly and Brookton bringing vital veterinary care and resources directly to the community, including desexing, microchipping, vaccinations, parasite treatments, and access to essential supplies.

​🤝 The Village Making This Possible: ​This incredible web of support is powered by a dedicated regional network: a wonderful PYC volunteer collects food prepared by Divine You Inc from Narrogin for Pingelly’s youth, while The Honourable Florist delivers non-perishables from PYC to the BOTT Brookton Giving Pantry to secure food for local families and dogs. These vital food logistics and Spay It Forward’s essential veterinary services are made possible through the medical dedication of Heartlands Veterinary Hospitals, crucial grant funding from Community Bank Pingelly and Brookton, our foundational local government partnership with the Shire of Brookton, and the valued support of the Shire of Pingelly.

​By providing consistent, proactive support, we can keep pets healthy, families together, and prevent crises before they happen. Thank you to everyone involved in making the Feed It Forward campaign such a tremendous success so far this June! 🐶🎉

At WA Pet Project, we are so proud to partner with SavourLife’s Feed It Forward campaign—because keeping pets and their families together when times get tough is at the heart of everything we do! 🐾💛

Through our Spay It Forward program, we help families access essential desexing and microchipping services. But we also look at the bigger picture! When families apply online, we often discover they are facing immense pressures and desperately need help with everyday essentials, like pet food. 🛒🥣

To help, we regularly refer North of the River families to The Hepburn Centre, where the incredible team at No Limits Perth distributes food relief to vulnerable community members at their monthly hubs in Wanneroo and Joondalup, and via their mobile outreach van in Merriwa. 🚐🤝 No Limits is a true lifeline, often helping families completely relocate due to domestic violence. When fleeing crisis, victims frequently leave with nothing but their children and their pets—because . 🏠🐾

This is why the relationship between SavourLife and Spay It Forward by WA Pet Project. It’s our chance to ensure vulnerable families can get their pets desexed, microchipped, and fed—helping people doing it tough keep their beloved companions at home. The reality on the ground is that at each monthly hub, there is absolutely no pet food left. It all goes💔 The demand is massive, and we need to offer more to help us FEED IT FORWARD this June! 📢✨

When you buy SavourLifeSavourLifeSavourLife dry food at Petstock until the 29th of June, SavourLife will donate a 3kg bag of SavourLife Essentials to community partners like us supporting vulnerable pet families.
