Lovely to have Rosie and Toby (the black lab) at the park last week. Toby is a registered blood donor with Pet Blood Bank U.K. and attends regular donation sessions in Dundee. There are regular sessions arranged at Fair City Vets in Perth as well. Every time a dog donates blood, it can help up to 5 other dogs. Dogs have to be healthy and fit, between the ages of 1-8 years old, weigh at least 25kg on their first donation session, be vaccinated and not from outside the U.K. (this is to prevent the possibility of infections).
If your dog meets the criteria and would like to find out more, then you can visit the Pet Blood Bank U.K. website.
