Next Friday June 22nd 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.
With only two days to enjoy many beaches with your dogs around Guernsey, the GSPCA are reminding all about the restrictions.
Dogs are not allowed on or off lead on the following beaches between 1st May – 30th September:
Fermain
Petit Bot
L’Eree
The Northern end of Vazon
Port Soif
Cobo
L’Ancresse / Pembroke
Dogs are also excluded from Shell Beach, Belvoir Bay, Fisherman’s Beach and the stretch of beach in front of the White House Hotel to the Herm Jetty.
We are very lucky that most of Guernsey's beaches are dog friendly during the summer months. However from tomorrow the beaches where dogs are banned between 1st May and 30th September have the restrictions lifted and these are –
Dogs are not permitted on Lihou Island and Lihou causeway all year round.
Last week we had a visit from Guernsey Press reporter Helen Devonshire who got to meet Bengi the oldest dog in need of a home at the GSPCA.
Helen was visiting as the Guernsey Press were kindly doing an article to try and help find Bengi a new and loving home.
GSPCA kennel staff Teresa Mourant and Seb Goman had the privilege to show Helen one of their favourite dogs currently in our care.
Teresa said "We all love Bengi at the GSPCA as he is such a character."

Bailey a 3 year old Shih Tzu is an extremely sweet and wonderful natured lady which all of the staff and volunteers have fallen in love with at the GSPCA.
Since arriving at the GSPCA, as sadly her owner could no longer care for her, it was quickly established that she was in need of an operation and a number of treatments.
Last week Bailey went along to the vets to be sedated for an operation after having blood in her urine and difficulty urinating. The vets performed an operation which resulted in removing 4 very large bladder stones.
This Sunday one of Guernsey's best known voices will be joining the GSPCA at our Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday to help judge our fun dog show from 12.30pm.
JKT as many of us fondly know her by has supported animal stories in many ways and a fantastic advocate for promoting kindness to animals across the Bailliwick.
You can listen to the JKT Show on BBC Guernsey each week day between 9.30am and 11am by visiting - www.bbc.co.uk/radio/player/bbc_radio_guernsey
With all of the plans coming together for the GSPCA Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday we are pleased to announce that Island FM will be joining us with Daniel the Donkey and the Cherry Godfrey Cash Shower.
The GSPCA would also like to say a huge thank you to D W Arundell for all of their support in advertising and supporting our BIGGEST event of the year celebrating animals in Guernsey.
With a huge variety of stalls and things to do and see we are extremely excited to see everyone this Sunday along the sea front in St Peter Port.
With only 5 days to go don't forget as part of the Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday there will be a fun dog show.
