Interesting indeed in that they are recommending letting your pup get heartworms and maybe they can live with them. And...they also say that Benji lived to be old after undergoing the treatment. I hope all of you who promote this have seen first hand what the treatment is and have also checked the cost. I feel sorry for any pup who must have those awful shots. Yes, they can die from the worms dying off!
And..please note at the bottom of that website the following! They say to be an educated consumer and after reading some of the things I have read I wonder what the term really means to each person.
They are voicing their opinion and further letting you know that it may not actually be valid information...they give it for "educational purposes only" thereby thinking they are released from liability.

Most importantly,
do not make decisions out of fear. Don’t let anyone, even your vet, intimidate or ridicule you. Be an educated consumer and a rabid advocate for your dog’s health.
