Heartworm Meds

Post by Chow Chow Mama »

It's that time of year again... heartworm testing. I'm just curious who uses what type of preventative?

We go year-round here in Texas. Bear and Samantha use Heartguard. Ping uses Revolution since she decided she didn't want to chew HG anymore. And Tod gets Iverheart at his vet. It's a pill and he takes it without a problem. Of all the brands, Revolution is the most expensive and the Iverheart is the cheapest.

we like Interceptor because it covers several parasites.
and Chyna is allergic to Heartguard.

I believe we used Interceptor Carter any yet, but that's probably what we'll get Carter too.
