Pet Lancing Tips from Dr. Joi Sutton, DVM:
-
Dog and cat ears have a vein that goes along the periphery of the ear flap. It is very easy to see in pets with short hair or light-colored fur. If your pet is particularly fuzzy, you might ask your pet's groomer to clip the fur short on your pet's ear making the vein easier to locate.
-
Other test site options include the accessory carpal pad, the side of a toe, or the tail base. The trick is to have an area with little fur that would wick away the drop of blood.
-
When performing a blood glucose test on your pet, do not wipe the site with alcohol, as it will dilute and alter the sample of blood.
-
Have your AlphaTrak lancing device in your dominant hand while holding the pet's ear with your non-dominant hand. Poke the pet right over the vein that travels the periphery of the ear. Gently squeeze or massage the area to encourage bleeding.
