Heartworm Disease

HEARTWORM - it is transmitted via a mosquito bite.

Light of Life vet was thoughtful enough to spend time creating some handouts for their clients, to provide an easy reference and gain some knowledge to help with their pets health care.

We would like to make a post using their handouts to let everyone know how dangerous Heartworm disease is. And if everyone out there REALLY care for your pets, please start prevention ASAP. Thank You!

Amber has started taking Heartgard Plus, let your furkid start one too~!
