So can horses get blood transfusions?

hedgie:
Considering that they’re usually considered more valuable than humans, I’d presume so.

Cornelius:
Apparently, despite the huge number of blood types, yes, they can. There's no antibodies originally present against other blood types, so any horse can give another horse their first transfusion. A second one can be trickier, as then, there are. Or so a veterinary knowledge base tells me.

sitnspin:
I have a friend who has AA degree in equine studies, I will have to ask them about this later.
