Submitted by Steve on 09:48, 4th Jun, 2015 | 0

As part of Volunteers Week and our continued recruitment of volunteers to help animals in Guernsey last night we greeted 7 new faces wanting to help at the GSPCA.

From work experience to Duke of Edinburgh, dog walking to reception, cat pen cleaning to helping with the wildlife, fund raising to volunteering to gain experience for their CV all of the group were looking to help the work of the Animal Shelter and some to help gain life skills.

Getting to the Shelter was a little challenge with the road closure but all arrived around 6.30pm.

Jessie the stray beagle - reports continue to show she's in the North West of Guernsey - any sightings 257261

Submitted by Steve on 17:01, 3rd Jun, 2015 | 0

Once again the GSPCA managed to locate Jessie but she continues to refuse to let anyone close to her.

Recent sightings have all been in the North West of Guernsey and we ask anyone that spots Jessie to immediately call us on 257261 and not approach as she will likely run from the area.

Previously Jessie the stray beagle cross has been seen on multiple occasions in and around the St Martins, St Andrews, St Peter Port, Forest, Castel and Vale area and we have been trying to feed her in and around a trap central to these locations.

The search for Jessie the stray beagle cross - reports continue to show she is between Rousse and Cobo - any sightings 257261

Submitted by Steve on 19:04, 1st Jun, 2015 | 0

Over the last few days Jessie the stray beagle cross has been basing herself on the west coast.

On the weekend GSPCA staff, volunteers and members of the public were very close to catching her and today sightings at Grandes Rocques meant a GSPCA team were dispatched but once again she managed to disappear.

We are asking those living on the west coast and near Cobo, Port Soif, Grandes Rocques and Rousse to keep an eye open for Jessie.

The search for Jessie the stray beagle cross - thanks to all that helped us get so close but sadly she's still loose near Rousse

Submitted by Steve on 19:23, 31st May, 2015 | 0

On Friday the search for Jessie was at Grandes Rocques traveling towards Cobo which is where the reports and search was based 3 weeks ago.

Yesterday she was spotted at Port Soif near the kiosk and late Saturday near Rousse kiosk.

On Friday and Saturday GSPCA team members were out in the area talking to those walking around Grandes Rocques, Cobo and Port Soif.

Today a team went out to Rousse and with the help of members of the public we got very close on a number of occasions, but sadly despite over 2 hours of tracking her she managed to evade the search party
