[QUOTE="Alice, post: 520997, member: 3873"] "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" My other dogs have always been on heartworm preventative...this old dog is a rescue, bless her heart. The one I lost to the treatment was years ago, before heartworm was prevalent in my part of the world. Heck, the vets never even mentioned it back then. We had moved to Virginia for 1 year and that's where she contracted it. I was heartsick. She was a beautiful, wonderful, sweet chow chow. I wish to goodness I hadn't decided to even have her checked for heartworms back then, but after moving to Virginia I discovered that heartworms (well the mosquitoes carrying the heartworms) were really bad there. I know the "cure" isn't as radical as it once was, but I remember it too well...and the "treatment" turned out to be worse than the "cure." Alice [/QUOTE]
