when to start heartworm regiment?

Post by Kevin Dowell »

what is the proper age to start a heartworm preventative schedule?

Is this bullet proof.............can dogs still get heartworms when on heartworm preventative meds?

The more people I meet, the more I love my dogs!

I start at 6 months. Never had a problem with dogs getting heartworm while on meds, but I've heard of it happening.
