Barnacle is patiently waiting while everyone around him prepares to collect his blood. He has a technician's comforting hands on him to help him feel secure; he loves all the extra scratches and belly rubs.
The technician is sterilizing the shaved patch of skin above Barnacle's jugular to prevent contamination. She does this right before placing the catheter to collect the blood.
Everyone is working together to help our heroic donor's procedure go as quickly and smoothly as possible!
Almost done, just a little bit more to go! Barnacle was very relaxed; he is an old pro at this.
All done! Thank you Barnacle- you're a hero!
We are always looking for volunteer blood donors here at Bishop Ranch Veterinary Center & Urgent Care. If you and your pet are interested in being part of this amazing program
or if you have any questions, please contact Samantha at sam@webvets.com.
