Hi Friends, What heartworm prevention do you use?

I am feeling better today and ate some chicken and a piece of ham it was yummy. My was so happy and she said I was such a good girl! Last night after she gave me my medicine she was worried cause burbed up a little so she called the Dr today and they said to me 1/2 dose of the Panacur, that yulky white medicine that is the most nasty stuff I have ever tasted but I took it like a good girl but I sure let her know that it tasted nasty with the face I made after she squirted it down my throat. I have even played today and has mommy throw my tennis ball a few times in the house. My says that I no longer can play with my balls outside because if it is true I have whipworm then it lives for 5+ years in the soil, so it is very important that all poop does not stay in the yard and she will be right behind us with a plastic baggie every time, like I won't get no privacy at all, usually she picks up every few days but not now she says. I never poop on my walkies or at other places I go, only in my back yard. Okay I may be strange but even when I visited my Grandmas I will wait for days till I get back in my yard, oh how I love my yard where nobody can see my booty due it's business! Hee hee booty business, hardy har!


Tomorrow is clean the back yard and mommy is getting rid of all our backyard toys but not to worry she say and promised to buy me new toys. She order us new shoes that we will wear outside and anytime we go out of the house. Below is the picture of them:


They are Ruff Wear Bark' n Boots. She got them at Backyard K-9 She got Baylee a pair too, in the pretty red. Baylee is getting poop inspection done too just to make sure she isn't getting sick. I can't wait to get them cause Mommy won't let me go for walkies until I have them and then germ-e's won't get on my paws and in my mouth when I lick my paws! Great thinking mommy. I wish they had the shoes in pretty pink color. Now that would be stylish, huh?

Friend I need to know what kind of Heartworm prevention are you on? I am on Wormshield which protects from heartworms along with hook and roundworms. This is what my doggie Dr. prescribes but Mommy has done research and she found 2 different kinds. The first is Intercepor, which protects against the same worms but also whipworm and then the other is Sentinel which also protects against the same worms as Interceptor but also has added flea protection. Do any of you guys have experience with any of these heartworm prevention medications? Mommy is so concerned that if I do have whipworms that they are very hard to get rid of because re -infestation is so easy since the worm eggs survive in the ground for 5+ years. So friends I am asking you to let me know if you have any experience with these medications? I am a golden and love to chase and put things in my mouth and now mommy says no playing with my toys outside but I think she would let me if I am protected against those nasty whipworms! Please let me know Thanks Friends!, you're the best!

Hi, Sami!
Be a good girl and take all your meds. I know they are yucki! but you need them to get better.
I can't wait to see you and Baylee wearing your boots!
I am like you. I don't poop outside my house.
My mom gives me Heartguard every month. I don't know if it is the best but is the only one we can get here.
I hope one of our friends who have experience with this will help you better.
Have a good night
Kisses and hugs

Hi Sami! I take Interceptor and have never had problems. I made pee-wee read your bloggy because he picks up all sorts of things in the park. I don't want him getting sickies too.

Hope you are feeling better. Can't wait to see my Baylee Princess in her new shoes.

In California, our vet recommended and we used Heartguard and Interceptor at various times. We had good luck with both.
