| Need info on dosage on heartworm meds! I think that Maggie may have eaten 2 doses of Interceptor heartworm meds. I gave each of them a pill in some cheese they ate it, I thought. I then finished giving them the rest of the cheese and then I saw Maggie picking up a pill and before I could grab it, she chewed it up! I am thinking it was Hot Rod's pill cause he has picked it out of whatever I put it in before. Any one know if this will harm Maggie? And what should I do about Hot Rod's dosage? Thanks in advance.

| I have had the same thing happen in the past. It will never now cause I give each one individually and watch til I'm sure they swallow it. I would give the one who didn't get his dose another one and I am sure it won't hurt the other who had 2 unless he is a very tiny dog. |

| Thanks for your response. I wound up calling the emergency vet and they said it shouldn't hurt her. I am going to call my vet tomorrow and see if I should give him another pill just in case he didn't get his. I will for sure give one at a time from now on! I thought that they both chewed it up and swallowed but I was wrong.
