Heartworm Prevention
Heartworm is a worm that lives in the blood vessels around the heart. It can be a fatal disease and once dogs contract heartworm, treatment can be associated with many serious side effects. We recommend that all dogs have a heartworm prevention program. This may involve either a tablet or a spot-on treatment on a monthly basis, and most effective products will also take care of intestinal worming or flea treatment also. We recommend Nexgard Spectra.
