Could you donate to Bailey a very sweet Shih Tzu's operation and care at the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 09:42, 2nd Jun, 2017 | 0

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.

Guernsey Police & GSPCA advice for dog and animal owners with hot weather

Submitted by Steve on 08:52, 2nd Jun, 2017 | 0

As the weather become increasingly warmer, people in Guernsey are being reminded not to leave their dogs alone in a car on a warm day.

Many people may think that it’s ok to leave a dog in a car on a warm day if the windows are left open or they’re parked in the shade, but the truth is, it’s still a very dangerous situation for the dog.  Steve Byrne, GSPCA Manager said:

“It can get unbearably hot in a car on a sunny day, even when it’s not that warm.  When it’s 22 degrees outside, the temperature inside a car can soar to 47 degrees within an hour.”

The GSPCA are currently looking for additional staff members to help with our increasingly busy front desk, the animals, cleaning and develop our charity shop area

The closing date for these posts is Tuesday 6th June 2017.

The roles are to help cover 7 days a week and especially on weekends and bank holidays when the GSPCA is often extremely busy.

We have a team of 20 staff and over 700 volunteers and without the whole team we couldn't help the 3000+ animals that come through the doors every year, care for the many boarders and achieve so much.
