From all at the GSPCA Thank You and Good Luck to the amazing Ben Howitt off to be a Chief Vet in the Galapagos

Submitted by Steve on 14:30, 25th Jan, 2019 | 0

Since November 2016 Dr Ben Howitt BVSc MRCVS has worked closely with the team at the GSPCA to help care for the thousands of animals through the doors every year.

When Ben joined the team at Isabelle Vets it wasn’t long before each week he would attend the GSPCA for the main vet check days and very quickly a wonderful relationship was established.

Ben with his friendly, helpful and caring nature was a fantastic help not only to the many sick and injured animals, but also to the GSPCA team.

Isabelle Vets recently announced the winner of the Isabelle Vets Pet Hero competition which was Catrina the tabby cat, as voted for by the general public.

All of the nominated finalists were ‘Heros’ in their own right, with over five hundred people voting for their chosen hero in a closely-run competition. On a small Island such as Guernsey, this truly shows the kindness and enthusiasm of people, in taking the time to recognise the bravery of all of these stoic pets.

Last week the GSPCA were approached to ask the question if we had a life saving dog.

Sadly a dog had been rushed to Isabelle Vets with health problems which meant the dog required a blood transfusion.

The GSPCA has over 200 animals at the Shelter from dogs to birds, cats to a horse and we the GSPCA team took a dog Tally up to the vets to see if he would be suitable.

Tally is an energetic lively dog lwho has come in to the Animal Shelter to find a new home.  He is a 6 year old flat coated retriever and loves people.
