An utterly despicable act has occurred at GSPCA last night. Heathlawn Animal Sanctuary, Killimor, County Galway was broken into and five of our dogs including Kanute (above) and Curley (bottom) were stolen, and horrifically some dogs that are just after having serious surgery and due follow up veterinary care.  All are  Micro chipped. If you have knowledge to the whereabouts of these dogs, some still need urgent vet care and medication. PLEASE contact Portumna Garda station (0909741004)  or any Garda station. PLEASE don’t be silent, we need to get these animals back. These animals will be no use to anyone, as sadly they stole the ones that need immediate care.
