πΈπΎ April is Heartworm Awareness Month! πΎπΈ
Did you know that heartworms are a serious, yet preventable, threat to your furry friend? πΆπ± Heartworm disease is transmitted through mosquito bites and can cause major health issues like lung disease, heart failure, and even death if left untreated.
This month, weβre spreading the word to keep our pets safe and healthy! Hereβs what you can do:
β
Talk to your vet: Schedule a heartworm test if itβs been a while since your pet was tested. β
Stay on top of prevention: Make sure your pet is on a monthly heartworm prevention medication. β
Check for symptoms: If your pet is coughing, has difficulty breathing, or seems unusually tired, itβs time to see the vet.
Prevention is the key, and it's so much easier than treatment! π Letβs make sure our furry companions are protected all year long.
