I do not know anythign about this subject since i've never had puppies so young before so i just bought home the meds.
Can you please give me insight on why it's not recommended. I'm googling it, but not getting enough info. |
If any of your pups are under 2 pounds....don't do it. But 5 or 6 months is fine. If your mom was on heartworm meds, they've obtained immunities from her.
