🚨 Heartworm Disease is Deadly — But 100% Preventable! 🐶💔

Did you know? One single mosquito bite can transmit heartworm disease to your dog — and it can take months to show signs. By the time symptoms appear, the damage may already be severe.

🦟 Key Facts About Heartworms:
✅ Transmitted by mosquitos
✅ Found in all 50 states
✅ Can cause heart failure, lung disease, and organ damage
✅ Treatment is costly, painful, and risky
✅ Prevention is easy and affordable

💊 Monthly preventatives = lifelong protection. Whether it’s a pill, topical, or injection, your pup deserves to be protected.

💬 Talk to your vet today about what prevention is best for your pet — because love means keeping them safe. ❤️

⛔️⛔️⛔️ IN NEED OF FOSTERS⛔️⛔️⛔️⛔️

Ozark and Wiregrass area here at the shelter we are in urgent need of foster heroes. You don't have to live just in Ozark to foster from our shelter.

We are partnering with the incredible rescue Southern Dog Mission to help get these sweet babies homes but most could use a short term ( few days- few weeks) or long term(few weeks- month) foster to help in this process.

Fostering isn’t just keeping a dog or cat in your house to make space for the shelter or by time until transport is ready for them. Fostering saves lives and helps dogs and cats get the much needed love most of these animals never have experienced.

Our Fostering program is going through Southern Dog Mission so you would need fill out the form below to be pre-approved.

Please share even if you can not foster and help us get the word out. THANK YOU
