And yes, your vet gets very real financial incentive from the pharma companies in the form of PROFITS they make by selling the heartworm medication. The study quoted is published in a medical journal. You can pick and choose to attack any blogger you want. These are hard facts. Any vet, if pressed, will admit that the monthly dose is only "needed" so that people won't forget to give it to their dogs. Read: it's not needed at all, unless you don't know how to use a calendar.
So you consider medical journals kool-aid, and a FAQ written by the pharmaceutical companies not kool-aid. You basically admit that you can't read a real piece of research (or maybe you can and are afraid that you'll be proven wrong). All is clear with you, Ma'am. Good night. | First off my vet has no problem giving me a prescription for heart worm meds and doesn't make a dime off of that so good luck convincing me my vet is lying to me. Also I am sure Ladyjane has read much research on heart worms I know I have and still do not have your opinion. Just because people don't have your opinion doesn't mean they haven't done research and read some study's. It's funny how you didn't do research about getting a puppy from a reputable breeder yet you know all there is to known about heart worm hmmmm....
