Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Some pets bleed a little longer after a blood draw than others. When stressed pets bleed a little more. As long as the bleeding stopped I wouldn’t be concerned. If your pet had a blood draw yesterday the bandage needs to stay off now. Kisses to your pet!
