On Wednesday GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne was joined at the Animal Shelter in St Andrews by 13 islanders attending a specially arranged GSPCA Dog First Aid training course.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “Recently I was contacted by Megan who enquired about running a GSPCA Dog First Aid Course for a group of her friends as they weren’t able to attend the course we held in May.”
As the sunny weather arrives the GSPCA are expecting to receive calls and reports from the public from dogs locked in cars, dogs being walked on hot pavements, animals in direct sunlight, wildlife in need and we want to remind all pet owners of the real dangers to their pets and how you can help wildlife.
With the extreme warm weather and direct sunlight, dogs and other animals whether in cars or their pens are potentially in a situation where you could kill your pet if it is left, regardless of the situation.
This Friday 20th June 2025 it is #BringYourDogtoWorkDay sometimes known as #TakeYourDogToWorkDay which we celebrate here at the GSPCA each as do many around the islands.
All around Guernsey each year businesses and offices have had their 4 some 3 legged friends come to work and this year Bring Your Dog To Work Day takes places on Friday 21st June.
This year we are asking islanders to get involved to help raise funds for the much needed new kennels as part of the GSPCA BIGGEST BUILD.

Trixie is a 5 year old french bulldog cross pug who sadly has been diagnosed with cancer so needs a very special home.

Seb Goman Senior Animal Care and Welfare Assistant said “Trixie came into our care through no fault of her own, full of life and affection.”
We are very lucky that most of Guernsey's beaches are dog friendly during the summer months. Saying this dogs are banned between 1st May and 30th September on the following –
Dogs are not permitted on Lihou Island and Lihou causeway all year round.
Every day the GSPCA help lost and stray animals and almost daily farm animals.
Some of these are due to dogs being walked worrying the herd or individual animals which can result in them being hurt or escaping.
With the larger farm animals we are called out to help everything from escaped horses to sheep in the road, cows in gardens to pigs out and about and many more.

Valentine Day saw the GSPCA celebrate 152 years of helping animals and Thursday 20th February is Love Your Pet Day and we want to see your much loved pets.
Why not share pictures or videos of your animals with us on our facebook or twitter pages as we 'All Love Our Pets' and we love to see them.
It is rare for dogs to be with us looking for homes for any length of time but occasionally we see those that we find a challenge to locate their forever home.
Seb Goman Senior Welfare and Animal Care Assistant tells us “ This week, the Shelter bid a heartfelt farewell to Stewie, a special dog who had been in our care for one year and seven months.”
“When Stewie first arrived, he was very wary of strangers, but with time, patience, and the dedication of our staff, he made incredible progress.”
