Arriving at 4pm the tour took well over an hour visiting and meeting many of the animals in our care.
On Sunday 19th June one of our fantastic volunteers undertook the Guernsey Dairy Half Marathon and helped raise funds for the many animals at the GSPCA.

"I did it in 2 hours 25 minutes and I am really, really pleased!"
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "Aoife did so well yesterday at the Guernsey Dairy Half Marathon and has raised an amazing £1,170 so far."

Next Friday June 24th is Bring Your Dog to Work Day.
Having a dog in the room can make human colleagues more cooperative, reduce stress, increase job satisfaction and productivity.
When adopting a dog or any animal from the GSPCA we often ask how many hours potential owners may be at work. Perhaps the question should actually be - are you able to take your dog to work?
Discussing the benefits of taking a dog to work might just result in a match with a dog we have in for homing.
