HEMOPET: A NATIONAL NON-PROFIT ANIMAL BLOOD BANK PROGRAM Veterinary transfusion medicine is a vibrant emerging specialty To meet these needs HEMOPET established the first private non-profit animal blood bank in 1991 and has since expanded nationally and internationally. We service over 2000 veterinary clinics nationwide and in Canada. Plans are currently underway to develop other regionalcentres and a coordinated national effort to maximize the efficiency and use of existing inventory. HEMOPET was incorporated in 1986 as a Federal 501(c)(3) not-for-profit program. The purpose was to develop a national blood bank and educational network for animals akin to that provided by the American Red Cross for humans. In establishing this program it was important to offer the service on a non-profit basis so as many animals as possible in need of transfusions could benefit. Practical, safe and affordable transfusion medicine was and is our goal.
Our licensed facility houses a colony of healthy, canine donors of universal blood type (DEA 4), maintained in an outstanding environment, screened for an inclusive list of pathogens, and current on all vaccinations. They are all rescued Greyhounds deemed unsuitable for the racing industry. We maintain 175 donors at present in our large facility in Garden Grove, California and have initiated a novel rescue-donor-adoption program for them. All the dogs have been neutered and receive on-site 24 hours-a-day veterinary care and maintenance
