Lorna Chadwick GSPCA Welfare Officer said “Molly is a beautiful 8 year old Chihuahua who is currently in our care at the Shelter.”
On Saturday evening the GSPCA had a report of a missing dog called Albie.
Albie the cocker spaniel had gone missing in the area between Icart car park and La Jaonnets bay.
Earlier today as Channel Islands Airsearch were going to help during a training mission around midday a report came in from the Icart area half way down a cliff.
The GSPCA headed down as did Cliff Rescue and the in-shore rescue team.
As Albie was located the CI Airsearch stood down and the Cliff Rescue team set up to retrieve Albie.
With over 400 animals in our care and over 3000 through our doors each year there are many things we use and need 24/7 365 days a year and many Wish List ideas for the animals in our care on our Amazon Wish List.
There are many ways to support our work and every penny makes a huge difference during these difficult times. There are a huge range of ways in which you can support our work and help us care for the animals at the GSPCA.
Currently at the GSPCA we are appealing for dog teats as we are running very low.
The GSPCA are warning dog walkers taking their four legged friends to local commons of a current concern.
There appears to be large numbers of what we believe are thorny seeds from what is believed is the Erodium cicutarium also know as Redstem Storks Bill which get caught in your dogs feet and fur along many of the commons and grassy areas especially L’Ancresse, Port Soif and Chouet,

With hot weather the GSPCA the GSPCA has been extremely busy with calls and reports from the public from dogs locked in cars, dogs being walked on hot pavements, animals in direct sunlight and we want to remind all pet owners of the real dangers to their pets.
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.

On Thursday 13th January 2022 Dora a medium sized cross breed dog managed to escape and decided to go for bit of a walk about.
Dora was originally lost near Amherst School.
From there she went on bit of an adventure and evaded being caught for nearly two weeks.
The GSPCA had many reports in many Parishes and we know she seemed to enjoy her time in St Andrews and Castel where we believe she was for much of the time she was missing.
We were pretty confident she was between Talbot Valley and Beaucamps for much of the last few days she was stray.
