[recovering!] SOS: Need negative dog blood (2-8years, above 21kg). ARC Balestier. Call Kemmy 97767526.

Hello all,

Anyone willing to let their dog donate blood? The dog must be between 2-8 years old and should weigh about 21kg and above.

My friend's dog is in need of a blood transfusion. So far 6 dogs have been tested and they were all postive blood groups. A negative blood group dog is needed.

I read online that breeds more likely to be negative include Greyhounds, Boxers, Irish Wolf Hounds, German Shepherds, Dobermans, and Pit Bulls. Breeds more commonly positive are Golden Retrievers and Labradors.

However anyone who is willing, can just send your dog (any breed!) down for testing! The dog is now at Animal Recovery, Balestier. All medical expenses will be paid for.

I can be contacted at 97767526 (Kemmy).

Please help!! Many thanks.
