Want to Volunteer for the GSPCA? Pop along to the Animal Shelter tomorrow at 6.30pm - Wednesday 5th June 2013

Submitted by GSPCA on 09:06, 4th Jun, 2013 | 0

If we didn't have volunteers at the GSPCA we couldn't exist, as every day kind individuals give up their own time to help the Animal Shelter and the work that goes on around the clock.

In a very basic calculation volunteers gave up well in excess of 13'000 hours during 2012 which is the same as 300 people working one 40 hour week.

From dog walkers to fund raisers, night wardens to receptionists, gardening to mucking out the GSPCA are grateful to each and every person that gives up their time to help the many animals in our care.

Thank you to everyone that supported and helped at the GSPCA Summer Fayre & Dog Show this weekend.

Submitted by GSPCA on 13:17, 3rd Jun, 2013 | 0

Yesterday was the GSPCA Summer Fayre and Fun Dog Show at Fairfields.

With over 200 dogs, over a 1000 visitors and a very sunny day a fantastic time was had with a lot of fun and some stunning dogs.

The GSPCA would like to thank all the volunteers and helpers as well as all those that supported the Dog Show which was all about celebrating the dogs of Guernsey.

There were stalls and games as well as plenty of refreshments and a BBQ which was ideal for such a sunny day.

Also many of the owners and some of the dogs enjoyed an ice cream or two.

Join the GSPCA this Friday at the Wayside Cheer Hotel with 2Xtreme to celebrate the safe capture of Slygo the stray terrier

Submitted by GSPCA on 11:38, 23rd Apr, 2013 | 0

After months of wandering the south cliffs of Guernsey Slygo the stray terrier was safely caught in the early hours of this morning.

The GSPCA has been working with the authorities and other charities to capture the nervous little dog that has been stray since February this year.

We must start by thanking all of the press and public in their support as without the combined help of everyone involved we wouldn't have been able to catch him.
