Every unit of blood helps save up to four lives
Launched in 2007, Pet Blood Bank UK is the only charity that provides a canine blood bank service for all veterinary practitioners across the UK.
As part of our charitable remit, our aim is to advance animal health and welfare and to relieve suffering by providing quick and convenient access to blood.
Similar to the human blood service, dog owners kindly bring along their much loved canine companions to give blood at one of our many sessions across the country.
The blood is then taken to our processing centre in Loughborough where it is separated into red blood cells and plasma products, and then stored ready for despatch.

Not long after being adopted, Edie became unwell suddenly and was diagnosed with autoimmune haemolytic anaemia. Scared of losing him so soon after he had found a home, owner Nikki was so grateful when a blood transfusion helped to save him. Edie is doing much better now. https://t.co/YBnCvz3uDb

Thank you so much to Lucy and her family for hosting a cake and coffee afternoon and raising over £500 for us! Lucy decided to fundraise for Pet Blood Bank after her dog Ned needed a lifesaving transfusion. Thanks to our donors, Ned is now back to his usual happy self. https://t.co/QrX0xDERj1
