Kris and Jerry Jugo

Kris and Jerry Jugo, animal lovers from the United States, contacted the GSPCA by e-mail before coming on vacation to Grenada.

They had visited our web site and asked if we needed any supplies from the states and what type of donations they could bring to us. It just so happened that we had been doing a lot of spay and neuter surgeries and our clipper blades were very dull and these blades are hard to find.

Kris and Jerry not only brought us new blades but a new clipper and lots of collars, leashes and treats for both the animals and the staff.

They also came and walked dogs on a Sunday morning and helped in the kennels.

Thank You for your help Kris and Jerry!!!

"Puppy Angels" Spay / Neuter Clinic

Feb 20 - 27, 2006

Spay and neuter your dogs and cats

Volunteer Veterinary team, "Puppy Angels Animal Rescue Group", New Hampshire, U.S., held a four-day spay/neuter clinic at the Grenada SPCA Animal Shelter. Dr. Dean Wallace along with Veterinary Technician, Linda Seavey and Veterinary Assistants, Sherry Morrall and Kimberly Lynch performed almost 120 surgeries.

Sherry Morrall, Director of "Puppy Angels" and Anne Ostberg, Program Officer of the Pegasus Foundation, U.S., together funded the trip to Grenada. The Massachusetts SPCA also donated many supplies. This free clinic included rabies vaccine, registration certificate and tags attached to a free collar.

The Grenada SPCA and the Department of Environmental Health assisted with transporting dogs. Neighbors worked together helping families with "too many dogs" in several communities providing transportation.

The Grenada SPCA would like to thank the good people who brought their dogs for the free clinic. We would also like to thank St. George's University for providing accommodations and anesthesia machine, Dr. Donald Schrank for overseeing surgeries, Dianna Yohannan for organizing dogs in Belmont, Karen Kleppa, S/Y Misty for assisting in post-op, Calli Goad and SGU Vet Students for loaning kennels, Liz Tingling and MaryAnn Hambly, volunteers, MaryAnn Mulvey, catering, Sean, Frik and Margit Potgieter, Hon. German Consulate, for transporting dogs.

Special thanks to the Ministry of Health and the Department of Environmental Health for assistance with medical supplies and transportation.

World Animal Day

"Paws in the Park"

Thanks to all of you who joined in the World Animal Day activities. We had a lot of fun and very much enjoyed seeing you and all your beautiful pets.

We had 100 new signatures on our Petition to urge government to enforce the Animal Control Act. If you did not make it to the park you may come into the GSPCA office and sign the petition. Our goal is to have 500 signatures before we send it to the government offices. Remember we are open Saturday mornings so stop in and sign up and visit with us. We love to see our members.
