Protect Your Pet: Heartworm Prevention

As we approach the much anticipated summer in New England and are enjoying more time outdoors, it is important to remember that your dog is at risk for heartworms, hookworms, roundworms, and intestinal parasites!  Even worse, if your dog comes down with a parasitic infection, it can infect people as well.  In order to avoid these type of infections in both your dog and yourself, it is important to provide your dog with a monthly dose of Heartgard Plus.  This preventative treatment kills any existing immature heartworms introduced to the dog by a mosquito bite over the past 30 days.  In order to provide continuous protection, a dose must be given consistently every 30 days.  Heartworm disease is highly preventable with this highly effective, safe, and convenient monthly medication that's easy for you to give and your dog will love to take!  If you have any questions about protecting your pet, please give Charlestown Veterinary Hospital a call.  Through our current special, when you buy 12 doses, you will receive $12 back!
