Shelter Dog Gives Blood to Family Pet
Sunday, February 06, 2005
The BBC News reports that unwanted 6 year old Lurcher named Nigel living at a Leicester animal shelter was used to provide blood to a family's cocker spaniel. The Lurcher was the only dog large enough that could spare blood.
"The owners are absolutely delighted, they have been up to meet Nigel and they have brought him lots of treats and sacks of food, so he's getting well and truly pampered."
RSPCA staff added they are continuing their search for a suitable permanent home for Nigel.
