No dogs at the GSPCA for the first time since WW2 but still 100’s of animals in our care

Submitted by Steve on 16:10, 24th Apr, 2020 | 0

The current lock down has caused huge challenges at the GSPCA and the team have taken a proactive approach to face the wide range of issues.

At the Animal Shelter we have 42 kennels and as of yesterday the only dog for rehoming inline with the strict social distancing guidelines was rehomed through our online adoption process.

This means we are in unprecedented times as we have no dogs at the GSPCA in kennels or foster homes.

URGENT KENNEL FLOOR APPEAL – Kennel flooring work discovers the need for new drains and completely ripping out sections of floor

Submitted by Steve on 13:40, 6th Jun, 2018 | 0

Over the last few weeks much needed work on the kennel floors has taken place, but this has uncovered major drain and structural issues.

Our kennels which were built in 2005 had a vinyl flooring put down which had sadly got to a point recently where new flooring was desperately needed which has been taking place since mid May. 

The first two sections required more work than expected and a few concerns were raised, but the work was undertaken and repairs carried out.

The cost per kennel is likely to be around £1,450.00 and we appreciate any support or help to this much needed work that is required to take place due to the current deteriorating floor.

By donating £1450 you can help us refloor one of our kennels which will then last for decades.
