Heartgard Plus Chewables

You can buy Heartgard Plus chewable heartworm preventatives here, no prescription needed.  Because we deal with a Canadian pet pharmacy this particular heartworm preventative is treated as an over the counter medication.  This is because the Canadian authorities have deemed ivermectin based heartworm medicines are safe enough to be available prescription free.

This means that not only do you benefit from great cost savings, but also from the convenience of being able to place your order and have it shipped directly.  There is no waiting around for vets to be contacted, and prescriptions to be filled.  This makes it the easiest way to buy Heartgard Plus online.

Chewable Heartgard Plus

One of the things that makes Heartgard Plus chewables so popular, is that they are so readily accepted by most pets.  The large beef flavored treat is seen as just that, a snack, not a medication at all.  If your dog is one of those that likes to gulp their food and is inclined to swallow everything offered whole, we suggest you simply break the chewable medication up into bite sized pieces.

This will ensure the whole treatment is digested easily and fully.

The chewables come in three different sizes.  The packs are color coded (to keep things really simple for us busy pet owners), and you should ensure you have the correct colored pack to suit the current weight of your pet.

For the most successful prevention of heartworm disease it is best to use these treatments every month, all year long.  As the disease is transmitted to our pets from mosquitoes, those living in areas with little mosquito may choose only seasonal use of the preventatives.  This is not officially recommended any more since mosquito activity varies hugely from year to year, and within even close lying areas.

If you do decide to go down this route, you should discuss the options with your vet, as an annual re-test for the condition is advisable.  You will need to ensure you start using Heartgard Plus within a month of the very first mosquitoes of the year, and continue until at least one month after all activity has ceased.

You can now also buy chewable (as well as regular tablet versions) of Generic Heartgard Plus, so you can save even more yet still give your dog a treat instead of a pill!

Choosing Heartgard Plus without a prescription is a time saving way to ensure your dog gets the protection from heartworm disease he needs.
