I am so happy there is such a thing as a blood bank for our babies. They need all the help they can get. I got Cocoa from the Humane Society of Dorchester Co. He is a Choclolate Lab and he is the sweetest dog. He loves my older lab, the kitties, my grandchildren and everyone that he meets. He is such a happy dog. We are so lucky we found each other. Thank you so much for this great cause you are letting us be a part of. I think it's so wonderful that the Blood Bank is here to help and save! I am a veterinary Technician and have worked at several of the animal hospitals (Bayside) that have been involved...and it has made me realize how much i would love to be involved to work with them. Let me know if you would be interested in me! Thank you, Beth Beth Frenchtown Island MD November 07, 2007 at 11:39:04 Our Phoebe has been donating for several years now and she knows as soon as we turn into the Vet's office what she is there to do. We hear good reports of how cooperative she is and just gets the job done! Thank you EVBB for all you do for the animal world, it is a great service. Evelyne & Phoebe (dog) Columbia MD August 13, 2007 at 14:14:28 Pearson (a greyhound) knows almost instinctively when it's blood donation time - there's a prance to his step and his long tail scarcely pauses in its constant whipping about as we head off to the clinic. He loves visiting his friends (who are apparently expert cuddlers as he's lying on the table giving blood) and the endless supply of treats. I'm pretty sure he thinks EVBB is his reward for good behavior. Thanks for making helping other animals such a positive experience for us both! Andrea Bel Air MD May 08, 2007 at 19:02:14 Thanks for always being so nice to Punx (Animal Med. Center-Cascades). He is always nervous, but he and I appreciate everyone being so sweet to him! He will continue donating until he is 8! Thanks! Tammy Leesburg Va January 12, 2007 at 21:59:52 Thank you for letting Brody be a blood donor. Since we adopted him from a Rott rescue, Brody has tried to give back and help save others. He's glad the doctor not scared of his "talking". We will see you again in Jan at Briggs Adoption Center. Cheryl & Brody Anderson Winchester VA December 23, 2006 at 19:09:42 To the donor dogs I need to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. My dear girl's life was saved by your generous donations of blood. You are forever in our hearts, thank you. Jill B MD November 26, 2006 at 16:11:20 Smokey gets so excited to see "Aunt Jackie," whoever greets him. All he has to do is go (his favorite) and eat nonstop treats (another favorite). Perfect for him, for EVBB, and for sick dogs who need help. I'm so glad that we learned about EVBB. Eden Segal Bethesda MD November 18, 2006 at 19:56:44 A big THANK YOU to all of the EVBB staff members for making the blood donation process a wonderful event for the dogs. My three Greyhounds - Josh, Patch, and Steel - love all the treats and lovin' they get when they donate. It makes it much bearable for Josh for he hates the vets office. It makes me happy to know that my guys can give back to the dog community and help those in need. Keep up the GREAT work. Suzanne Columbia MD November 15, 2006 at 12:40:12 My dog "Clark" loves going to the blood bank, not just for the cookies, but because of all the friends that he meets and that he knows that he's really helping someone in the long run. I beleive that this is one of the best things that someone could ever think up to help the pets that are in need!! Sharon Nealon Millersville MD USA August 30, 2006 at 15:59:48 I think it is so awesome this is done! i wish there was a place for me to take my dog in the fredericksburg, va,area to give blood ..does anyone know where there is a place near central park that it can be done..im new to the area and that is about all i know so far karen eastes fredericksburg va August 25, 2006 at 14:02:14 What you are doing is WONDERFUL! I am disappointed that I did not know about your services sooner. My Bruno (Rot mix) just celebrated his 8th birthday; as a puppy he had the Parvo-virus and the blood transfussion helped to save his life. If Bruno was younger I think he would be more than happy to help another doggy friend. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! I will keep you in my prayers. Brandy Stair Norfolk VA USA August 25, 2006 at 10:34:10 5/16/06 My rescued Greyhound, Mandie, has donated several times now. She loves the treats (as does Rex, her Greyhound companion), and does well. It turns out her blood type makes her a universal donor, which delights me! She just had her 7th birthday, so may be eligible to donate one more time in July. The EVBB staff are wonderful! Keep up the good work!!! susan moon montgomery village md usa May 16, 2006 at 10:33:55 I think what you do is great. To actually have a place that specializes in canine blood donation is wonderful. I work at a local 24 hr emergency animal hospital and my 4 yo Xena (rottweiler) is a current blood donor and My 8 yo Nikki (also rotti) is a retired blood donor. It is such a simple procedure and both girls are pro's now. The best part is they get to hang out with Mom while I am at work. Keep up the great work! Lauren, Nikki and Xena Norton MA USA May 11, 2006 at 10:30:59 Wonderful things you are doing for our doggie friends. I have 5 Goldens and three little strays that live with us, but so far I as I know, there are no Dog Blood Banks here in OK. I work for the Oklahoma Blood Institute so I was quite amazed by your Canine Blood Bank. Keep up the Good Work Diane Lee OKC OK USA January 24, 2006 at 13:04:00 Love all the pictures of your volunteer blood donors. Keep up the good work of saving lives! Theresa January 04, 2006 at 11:56:12 A great big thanks for taking such good care of Happy Jack and (first time donor) Brandi, at Canine Mind in Prince Frederick. I know Jack likes to help out and I really think Brandi had a good time, especially with all the treats she gets. She eats Jack's share. Maryann Haginas Prince frederick Md Calvert August 11, 2005 at 16:20:18 To all of the EVBB staff, we give our thanks for making our donations full of joy and treats! We have to move on (Dad is active duty Army & going to Iraq) but will ALWAYS remember our donation experiences with happy hearts. Mom and Dad are real proud of us, donating 5 times each! We have told all our friends about you! We will miss you all - Much love from Bristol the Whippet and Sadie the German Shorthaired Pointer (and their mom and dad) - God Bless Cyndi Fort Meade MD USA July 16, 2005 at 20:41:49 Two years ago, my beloved cat Spice had cancer and received blood products to help her enjoy her final year with us. I always wondered how to thank someone for this. My two dogs just completed their first donation last week, just days after my other much adored cat, Sugar, passed away unexpectedly. I feel Bristol and Sadie are honoring the memory of their playmates. With caring staff and a great mission, we are fortunate to have EVBB. Cyndi Fort Meade MD USA December 13, 2004 at 13:59:21 As an employee of the EVBB, I just read all of the comments on this page, and I want to thank you all for your support. It makes me feel wonderful how far the word is spreading on the importance of HUMANE blood banking. Animals give us a lot. It is good to know so many people want to help give back. Annapolis November 12, 2004 at 13:22:32 I have learned a lot from your site. Thanks ! October 19, 2004 at 09:37:02 My 8 year old Sheltie had emergency surgery to remove a kidney with a 15 cm tumor on 8/6/2004. She received 250 ml of packed red blood cells and without them she would have died. My and her heart says THANK YOU to all the donors that make this possible. David Porter Syracuse NY USA August 12, 2004 at 13:17:50 I had my "mom", arlene malay, type this message for me. I donated my first unit of blood this morning! It was such a wonderful experience. I was able to keep my security bunny with me! The vet and her tech were so calming and caring. Knowing that I will help to save the life of a canine "cousin" makes me and my "mom" feel wonderful. I look forward to many years of donating to a great grup of caring and loving people. trigger brentwood md usa July 06, 2004 at 17:50:08 I never knew that this existed! This is amazing! Thanks so much for the good work! Erin erin_adams@mail-room.com Erin Arlington VA usa July 01, 2004 at 20:13:59 I filled out the application and the next day I got a call. We go for our first appointment in June. I can't waite. This is a wonderful site. I will encourage all my friends and family to have their dogs donate. Terry H. Baltimore MD USA May 12, 2004 at 04:45:15 THIS SITE IS WONDERFUL. I AM SUCH AN ANIMAL LOVER. I WATCH LOTS OF ANIMAL RESCUE SHOWS ON TV. I HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED WHERE INJURED ANIMALS GET BLOOD FROM. I HAVE VERY INTELEGANT FRIENDS INLUDING A NURSING PROFESSOR. I MYSELF USED TO BREED BASSET HOUNDS. I HAVE ASKED MANY PEOPLE WHEN ANIMALS GET INJURED AND NEED BLOOD WHERE DOES IT COME FROM ? NOBODY SEEMS TO KNOW. MAKING LIGHT OF THE QUESTION, I FINALLY DECIDED (NOT SERIOUSLY) THAT SOMEWHERE THERE MUST BE ANIMALS LYING ON A TABLE VOLUNTERALY GIVING BLOOD FOR THIER FRIENDS. I HAD NO IDEA THIS COULD REALLY BE TRUE. THIS IS FANTASTIC. WHY ARE THERE NOT NOTICES IN VETS OFFICES ABOUT THE WONDERFUL SERVICE YOU PROVIDE. I AM SURE MORE PEOPLE WOULD HELP IF ONLY THEY KNEW. SIGNED AN ADMIRER OF YOUR WONDERFUL WORK. LISA BRADLEY GAINESVILLE GA USA February 26, 2004 at 03:01:48 I think this is a wonderful service! I am hoping to get all 4 of my retired rescued racers donating! 2 of them already do. Kim Briggs Manassas VA USA January 21, 2004 at 15:57:05 Superb Idea! You need to get the message out to more vets though. I am reading the guestbook and am amazed at how many folks never knew this was available. I have worked for 2 Vets recently and they had no information whatsover on this. jean leesburg va usa December 25, 2003 at 01:13:56 Great website. Love the pictures of the dogs! Theresa Annapolis MD October 10, 2003 at 21:45:35 Saw you on the Animal Planet GREAT thing you're doing! My husband & I are involved in the Morris Foundation because of a great DVM in Hampton.She tried everything trying to save my Bull Terrier(he didn't make it). But now we have 2 more.They're like husband & wife to each other,but still like babies to us.God help me if anything ever happens to them. So nows the time for them to help save a life or two.Thanks to research & veterinary facilities like yours our babies have a better chance at living life to the fullest! Thanks again for the WONDERFUL work you're doing!We're looking forward to meeting you in person,so we can help a little. Debra Turner Hayes Va USA September 04, 2003 at 14:33:37 Just wanted to tell ya'll to keep up the good work!! I wish my doggie could donate but she only weighs 28 lbs =( You provide an awesome service that is definitely much-needed!! Sandy (and Ally) Columbia MD USA July 24, 2003 at 21:02:21 |
