I wish to clarify one thing that I have said. When I refer to slow kill, I am not talking about the dangerous to the dogs method that some people find acceptable. I googled and see that, as Crystal, said, a lot consider the approach of only Heartgard to be termed as slow kill. I had no idea that people considered that to be slow kill!
I meant three treatments instead of two and spaced apart properly. I also meant two to three months of Heartgard prior.
This is, after all, what is recommended by the Heartworm Society whom I look to as the experts on heartworms.
Speculation about possible liver problems in dogs and the reasons for them based upon people's suppositions is not what I consider valid research data. |
