Yes...to the fact that treatment for heartworm is just horrible. You give the dog arsenic....yes, arsenic...a poison that kills. It's a long, drawn out treatment that has nasty side effects too. It's not worth taking a risk, imho.
Btw, Interceptor has a lower weight version for smaller dogs...maybe you'd like that one better?
