Every year the GSPCA receives complaints and concerns from potential scams of animals sold online to possible animals coming from puppy farms to inappropriate breeders.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “At the GSPCA we are extremely concerned about reports of people falsely advertising animals online to try and deceive people looking for a new pet out of their money.”
“Every year we have reports of pictures of puppies advertised on facebook which either may not exist or could be from puppy farms or backgrounds that are not ideal for the animals welfare.”

On Saturday the GSPCA were called out to Petit Port to a report sick seal pup.
The team arrived to find a 17kg female pup which is extremely thin suffering with pneumonia which has been called Swish and is recovering in our intensive care unit at the GSPCA that will very soon be rebuilt so some challenges ahead.
The GSPCA recently announced the release of Roar and California Girl back to the wild rescued last year and this is the first seal rescue of 2025 and is a very late pup for the season.

Today is Shrove Tuesday also known to many as Pancake Day and many of us will shopping for our ingredients. The GSPCA would like to remind everyone to think of the produce that you are going to use and please look to buy Animal Welfare friendly products such as free range eggs.
