There are many situations in which a dog may require a blood transfusion.  A traumatic accident or tick fever infection may result in severe anaemia which can be life threatening without a transfusion.

East Island Animal Hospital now stocks blood at all times.  Please call us for more details.

We've seen a number of cases of dog tick fever at the hospital over the last week. Tick fever is an infectious disease caught from ticks. All of the dogs are now getting better, but remember to keep up your dog's flea and tick prevention to help keep them safe.
