Why should I protect my dog against heartworm disease?
Heartworm disease in dogs (dirofilariasis) is spread by mosquito bites and can become fatal if not treated properly. Heartworms can cause damage to your dog’s heart, arteries and lungs. It is important to keep your dog protected year-round as heartworm disease has been found in all 50 states and dogs can become infected at any time. Although it is possible to treat infected dogs, it is more difficult, more expensive and risky.
