Every few months, The Pet Blood Bank runs a pet blood donation session, on a Saturday, at our practice. It works in a similar way to the human blood donation, whereby blood is collected from donor dogs and is either blood-typed and stored as whole blood or separated and its components kept to be used as plasma or other blood products.
Practices and veterinary hospitals subsequently have access to this blood in emergency cases such a severe haemorrhage, shock, gut infections or other toxic conditions, which gives them the potential to save a pet's life.
For more information on The Pet Blood Bank or to make a booking for your dog to donate at one of our sessions visit www.petbloodbankuk.org
Your dog must fit the following criteria in order to donate.
The next blood donations days at the practice are as follows:
Sat 11th April 2026
Sat 13th June 2026
Please contact The Pet Blood Bank directly to book your dog in to donate.
