Heartgard Plus Chewables for dogs are available online without a prescription.

Veterinarians recommend Heartgard Plus Chewables for dogs because they know that dogs are protected from heartworm disease when they take Heartgard Plus. Veterinarians would much rather prevent heartworm disease in their patients than treat it. While there are treatments available, they can be bad for the dog and cost the owner a lot of money. And, left untreated, heartworm disease can lead to discomfort and even death. Giving your dog Heartgard Plus Chewables once a month for life is safe, easy and cost effective, especially when purchased online.

Why Do Dogs Need Heartgard Plus Chewables?

Dogs are easily infected with heartworm disease via mosquito bites. Heartworm larvae, which live in the mouth of a mosquito, work their way into a dog's bloodstream, circulate throughout his body and end up in his heart within two to three months of the bite. The heartworm larvae then grow to adulthood in the heart within five to seven months. Adult heartworms, which reproduce quickly, live in the right chamber of the heart. Adults can grow to be around 12 inches long. They prevent the heart valves from operating properly, they obstruct major blood vessels and they prevent blood with oxygen in it from moving through a dog's body the way it should. Heartworms can also live in the pulmonary artery. Heartgard Plus Chewables for dogs works by killing the larvae once they enter the bloodstream, before they can mature into adult heartworms.

Give Heartgard Plus Chewables Once a Month

Ordering Heartgard Plus online without a prescription is as fast and easy as giving your dog a Heartgard Plus Chewable once a month for life. Heartgard Plus Chewables also protect your dog from hookworm and roundworm. Unlike heartworm, these parasites can be transmitted to humans. Heartgard Plus protects your dog and your family.

Dogs can be infected several times by the same mosquito. Each time he is bitten, there is the risk of infection. Years ago, veterinarians believed that only dogs that lived in warm climates needed year-round heartworm protection. Today, however, vets and dog owners realize that they can't really be sure at what time of year the first mosquitoes will arrive and at what time the last will leave. Therefore, taking a Heartgard Plus Chewable once a month will ensure protection no matter how long mosquitoes are out.
