Come in to have your dog tested for heartworm before June 1st and receive $10 off!
Heartworm, or Dirofilaria immitis, is a nematode, which infects dogs. The heartworm life cycle begins when an infected mosquito bites the dog and transmits infective larvae into the dog’s blood stream. Heartworm causes severe health problems in dogs and untreated will lead to congestive heart failure and death. We recommend annual testing and year-round preventative medication. If you have any questions concerning your dog’s risk or current heartworm preventative please contact our office.
