For pups six months old or older that haven't been on preventative, a heartworm test should be given before starting medication and the dog tested six months later to be sure there are no parasites. Annual tests thereafter ensure your puppy stays healthy.
How do I prevent my dog from getting heartworms? Heartworms have been found in dogs in all 50 states so all dogs are at risk, even those animals that primarily live indoors. Fortunately, with medication, heartworm infection is almost always preventable. Ask your veterinarian about heartworm prevention. Preventive treatment should begin at 6 or 8 weeks of age in puppies and after tests have been conducted in older dogs to determine if your dog has already been infected. An annual blood test should be run to confirm the dog continues to be negative for heartworms.
