I use natural prevention and don't live in an area where heartworm is a concern. You want to put poison in your dogs system as a prevention I want to keep a strong immune system that fights parasites and my dogs blood does get tested and guess what, no worms.
I feed raw and not everyone agrees with that I don't give heartworm treatment not everyone agrees with that. For all the dogs you are pointing out in my area who had it I can show you 50 who don't get the treatment and have no worms.
As for putting a gun to my head don't be coy I was paraphrasing. There are other means of preventing and protecting your animals. You just have to do the research. |
