PLEASE Always get your dogs vaccinated ...this is one awful disease and none of us wants to take ANY chances - for anyone who has fears about getting their dogs vaccinated - PLEASE TALK it over with your vet and work out something that is suitable to you both...Many shots can be spaced out and it's very important that all our yorkies are safe even if they are mostly in the house
Also...laws require them 
Also - don't overlook protecting them against HEARTWORMS....THAT is simple - a yummy Chewy once a month called Heartguard can save you from future heartache.....
Remember.....Heartworms are caused by mosquitos and we ALL have to deal with those nasty creatures. |
Great post Villette! Also, I'd like to add, Revolution takes care of heartworms too as well as many other pesky things... We get mosquitos really bad because we have a stream of running water on our back property...they breed down there and fly up here to annoy the heck out of us.
