Yes, you are right Arlene. And I think they can get more blood out of that artery than in the leg where the IVs usually go.

May God walk with you today.

That is the common area to withdraw blood from a dog or cat.  I used to work in a cat hospital and that is what they did.  Also, my Aussie, Zoe, has an auto-immune disease and requires blood tests every 3 months or so.  They always withdraw from the neck artery (carotid artery).  It doesn't seem to hurt them at all, even if they bruise.

I also should tell you that i have watch them take the blood and it doesnt appear to hurt. Myself i have bloodwork down every two weeks most times it doesnt hurt.  sometimes i bruise  when it doesnt hurt.

May God walk with you today.

As you all know, Katie was spayed and had 12 teeth pulled on the 30th.  Please look at these 2 pics and tell me why she has that bruise on her neck?!?!
