Its about that time for Amara. And us living in South Carolina there is a high risk of heartworms. I really need suggestions for the medications I should use. If anyone has any information to offer me. It would be very much appreciated. I can't have my little baby getting heartworms. They can be fatal. She is 18 weeks old. And the nurse from Richland Creek Animal Clinic suggested I get her started at about five months on heartworm prevention medication.

I'm very worried and scared. She doesn't have them. Its just I worry alot about her.
