Pibbles Pay it ForwardYour dog can help save lives and also donate to our charity to help save more lives. If your dog is between the age of 2-8 years old, in good health, heartworm negative and over 50 lbs... your dog can get screened for blood donations at Blue Pearl. If your dog is an approved candidate for blood donations you can also choose to have a $25 credit donated to the balance of Pibbles to the Rescue. |

Why DonateDonated blood saves pets' lives. For the same reasons sick or injured people often need blood transfusions that replace blood loss due to traumatic injury or surgery. Transfusions also are used to treat animals whose blood systems are not functioning well. Often, these are pets with diseases that attack their immune systems or diseases that prevent their blood from clotting normally--such as happens when pets and people suffer heat stroke. Other common situations when blood products (blood or plasma) may be used are with critically ill patients with cancer, anemia, clotting problems, internal parasites, heat stroke, or traumatic blood loss (auto accident, bite wounds) Archives
