Heartworm infections shorten the lifespan of dogs considerably. We see here the real heart of “Smelly”, infected with heartworms. He was king of his neighborhood, but he died from complications of heartworm because he was never given preventive medicine. His owners didn’t know about it.
Give your dog a MONTHLY preventive medicine – PAWS uses ivermectin, an inexpensive and effective medicine ($1 per dose) to prevent heartworm infection of your dog. We will always test your dog to see if it is infected first, before prescribing preventive medicine.
Heartworm disease can lead to severe lung disease, heart failure, and damage to other organs if not treated.
