Ellie's vet takes it from the jugular and she is really wiggly, so then Ellie ends up with a bruise and last night she jerked her neck with the needle in it, so it took a long time to stop bleeding. I think the neck is the fastest and easiest in small dogs and the cephalic tends to collapse but does anyone's vet take it from the leg?
Just curious.  |
we always drew blood from the front leg, jugular or hind legs...but usually hind for little doggies!
