Transfusion from dog blood bank helps save police K9

LAS VEGAS, Nev. – When a canine is in crisis, Las Vegas Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care is there, performing life-saving transfusions with blood from donor dogs.

“Each donor that we have has their picture, their blood type, the last time they donated, and when their blood work will be due,” said Heather Davis, Las Vegas Animal Blood Bank coordinator.

In March, Metro Police K9 Enzo was airlifted to V.E.C.C for emergency surgery after a suspect stabbed him multiple times.
