You may have seen us collecting blood yesterday, this is to help with blood transfusions in the hospital 💉🩸
Babesiosis is one of the main diseases here and is a tick-borne disease that attacks a dog’s red blood cells (RBCs), causing severe anemia. The parasites invade RBCs, multiply, and destroy them, leading to:
⚠️ Lethargy & weakness
⚠️ Pale gums & jaundice
⚠️ Dark urine (hemoglobinuria)
A blood transfusion is needed when RBC loss becomes life-threatening, helping to:
✅ Restore oxygen levels
✅ Prevent organ failure
✅ Support recovery while meds fight the infection
Prevention Tip: Use tick prevention—babesiosis is easier to prevent than treat! #Babesiosis #TickBorneDisease #DogHealth

Meet Amy!
Amy’s a a vet nurse from the North East with over 15 years experience, and loves travelling and street animals! After a long stint in Sri Lanka volunteering with the street dogs, she was desperate to get back out and help more, and make a difference in local communities where they don’t have the most access to veterinary care! And she’s actually flying out to meet us in Romania again today for her second visit! 🤩🐶
If you want to join us on future visits- just get in touch!
Meet Kim!
Kim flew out to help us in Romania from Switzerland! This wasn’t her first neutering campaign, Kim likes to spend her time visiting different countries and helping out with as many spay and neuter projects as she can!
She particularly enjoyed the team we got to work with in Romania, as their love of the patients really shone through every day! 🥰🐶

Meet Amy!
This was Amy’s first time volunteering abroad, having reached out from one of our posts online! She absolutely loved seeing how the clinic ran and learning some new tricks and tips while she was out there! All valuable insight into her development as a veterinary nurse- and we’re so glad to have been able to be a part of that experience for her!
Follow along for more of our veterinary nurse reviews 🤩

Meet Holly!
Holly came out to us on our last visit to Romania as a travel loving veterinary nurse with a background in emergency and critical care.
She loved her time in the busy environment and especially on the outreach project where we went into the community!
Stay tuned for more vet nurse reviews- and let us know if you want to join our next trip 🤩🐶🇷🇴
When you are asked to help with 500 spay and neuters.....😎
