HEARTWORM PREVENTION

With the onset of warmer weather, mosquito populations increase!! The mosquito is the transmitter of heartworms, a potentially fatal parasitic infection of dogs (and less commonly cats).

Heartworm infection in dogs can cause weight loss, coughing, fatigue, etc. Early and accurate detection of heartworms by blood testing is an essential step in prevention or treatment.

With early detection, by annual blood testing, dogs with Heartworm may often be safely and successfully treated by a veterinary professional.

Prevention for Heartworm disease, once a negative test has been documented, is available in several forms.
Sentinel is one of our preferred types of preventive medication. This product in flavored tablet form when given monthly (as veterinary recommended) prevents heartworms, deworms for hookworm, and aids in flea control!
