Do you have a Blood Donor Hero?
🌟 Blood Donor Program 🌟
This is beautiful Duke who recently donated life saving blood! 🩸
Look at those happy smiles from Dr Kim and Duke. 🤩
🔴 There are many reasons why a blood transfusion may be needed, including:
🐾 Severe trauma
🐾 Blood clotting and bleeding disorders
🐾 Toxins that cause bleeding, such as rat bait and some snake bites
🐾 Immune-mediated disorders that can destroy both the red blood cells, platelets, or clotting factors
🐾 Cancer
🐾 Blood loss during surgery
❗But we need more superheroes to join our family of amazing blood donors so we can continue to provide this service for our patients.
Could your dog save the lives of other dogs❓
