Protect your pet from heartworm infection with a little forward planning. Follow this checklist to keep your pet safe!
Schedule routine check ups: Annual check ups and heartworm tests are essential (even if your pet is on prevention year round!). We can test for the presence of heartworms and recommend preventative procedures.
Mosquito-proof your home: Eliminate sources of standing water, grow mosquito-repelling plants, and use a pet-friendly, chemical free insecticide spray to minimize mosquitos in your yard.
Limit outside time when mosquitos are most active: Mosquitos are most active in the early morning and evening, so it's a good idea to keep your pet inside during those times.
Give your pet parasite medication: The best way to protect your pet from heartworm infection is by giving them preventative medication. We also offer Proheart injections as well as monthly chewable medications.
Never miss a dose: Download our Pet Desk App! You'll get a buzz when it's time to give their monthly medication!
