Warning to dog owners L’Ancresse/Pembroke – dead cow on beach

Earlier today the GSPCA were informed of a dead cow that had been washed onto our coast and passed the information to the States Vet.

The Environment Department is advising dog owners that a dead cow (adult) has been washed up on to the rock outcrop in the centre of L’Ancresse/Pembroke bay today.

The body is in very poor condition and it may pose a hazard to dogs if they eat it.

David Chamberlain, the States Vet, considers the cow is likely to be of French origin.

Today is World Animal Day and to celebrate not only are the GSPCA in Market Square with a selection of animals in need of a home but we are celebrating one of our cats helping another.

On Wednesday an appeal went out on BBC Guernsey for a cat in need of blood.

Isabelle Vets and the owner were asking for cats between the age of 1 and 8 years of age with blood type A.

The GSPCA heard the call for help and took a selection of the 57 cats in need of homes from the Shelter that could be suitable.
