What are the benefits of having my pet as a blood donor?
Not only are you saving a pet’s life, but you will receive other benefits such as: • A 20-pound bag of dog food or an 8-pound bag of cat food at the time of each donation • A complete physical examination • Extensive blood screening (with a copy for your records) • A six-month supply of heartworm preventive (dogs) if your pet donates at least six times a year • A free blood typing, which means that if your pet ever needs emergency care or a blood transfusion, you’ll know what blood type he or she is! While bringing your pet in for blood donation may seem like a big commitment and a lot of work, remember you are helping save hundreds of lives a year! We’d love to have you as part of our life-saving team! Please call our blood donor voice mail at 612-625-9726, ext. 2, if you are interested in having your pet donate blood. To receive all of the benefits listed above, your pet must donate at least six times a year for dogs and four times per year for cats.
