ICYMI, this past week, we've been acknowledging National Blood Donor Week, but of course this initiative goes beyond one week a year.

When cats and dogs become donors, we spotlight their bravery on our Wall of Heroes.

Another way of saying thank you to those who have helped save the lives of other pets in need, the wall is also a call to patients and non-patients in our community to apply to our Pet Blood Donation Program.

As part of their screening, pets will receive:
❤️ A free, full physical examination
❤️ Free blood typing
❤️ A special treat or toy

If accepted into the blood donor program, your pet will also be celebrated on the Wall of Heroes.

Dogs have more than a dozen blood group systems, with the DEA (Dog Erythrocyte Antigen) system being the most clinically significant. Dogs with DEA 1.1 negative blood are universal donors, meaning their blood can be safely transfused to almost any other dog.

Cats have three blood types: A, B, and AB. Most cats in North America have type A blood, but type B is more common in certain purebred breeds. There are no universal feline donors, so blood typing is essential before transfusion.

No matter your pet's blood type, we invite you to apply to our blood donation program as part of National Blood Donor Week.

The blood donation process is safe and straightforward. A small volume of blood is collected and pets can donate one time or after every eight weeks if desired.

Cats receive a mild sedative to help them remain calm, while most dogs tolerate the process without sedation.

Our veterinary team ensures that every donor is treated with the highest level of care and comfort. Regular health screenings are performed to confirm donor fitness, and all donations are handled using sterile, controlled procedures.

Our patients will thank you.

When we think of heroes, we often imagine capes and superpowers. But sometimes, heroes have four legs, wagging tails, and a heart full of love. Pets can be heroes too—especially when they donate blood to help another animal in crisis.

June 15 - 19 is National Blood Donor Week, and while the conversation centres around human blood, it is important to also draw attention to the need for dog and cat blood as well. When a pet faces trauma, surgery, or a life-threatening illness, a blood transfusion can be their lifeline.

Just like in human medicine, veterinary teams rely on a steady supply of blood donations to treat their most critical cases. The demand for animal blood is constant, and your healthy dog or cat could be the hero another pet desperately needs.

At Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital (BBVSH) in Surrey, BC, we operate a dedicated Blood Bank Program to support animals in emergency care. We’re always looking for new heroes—four-legged ones with hearts big enough to share.

Say hi to Goober!

At 14 months old, Goober came to Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital in rough shape, diagnosed with steroid-responsive meningitis.

He's been under the care of Dr. Gordon and our team since the fall, and today he's gaining weight, full of energy, and everyone is optimistic about a full recovery.

Goober's family is happy to report that he's also training with the Burnaby Urban Search and Rescue team!

We receive a lot of kind words and stories from the families who walk through our doors, and every one of them means something to us.

Thank you, Stacey and Norm, for trusting us with Goober 💙

Every pet owner should have a ready-to-go emergency kit stored in an accessible, waterproof container.

In addition to this kit, it’s also important to ensure your pet’s microchip registration and ID tags are up to date, as this is one of the most effective ways to be reunited if you are separated. Consider including a list of local shelters, animal control, and veterinary clinics in your kit so you know exactly where to turn if your pet goes missing.

Make it a habit to check your kit every few months to replace expired items and adjust for seasonal needs.

Save this post as your handy pet emergency kit checklist.
