To be honest, my dads dogs (6 1/2 and 5 1/2) have never been given HW meds. Mostly out of just ignorance on my dad and stepmoms part. I don't think they realize the necessity. Thus far, there's never been a problem. Not that it's something I would suggest.
Here is an incident map: http://www.heartwormsociety.org/down...e-Map-2010.pdf | Even in a very low chance of getting it location I would still never risk my dogs life with heart worms.
