I'm just wondering what everyone is doing for heartworm protection. I've read that every 30 days is total overkill, I've read to do it every 30 days. I've read to give it year round, and I've read it's only necessary in spring and winter. I've read it's only necessary depending on where you live.
So, what do y'all do? What do you use? How often? Year round?
I'll be totally honest, our vet in San Diego never really brought it up, and I had never used it before getting Champ, because I just didn't know. I've been doing it only in spring and summer, but I'm wondering if this is okay or not now? I'm anti-vaccines and all that junk, but I don't think heartworm is something I want to mess with. None of my dogs are on it right now, but I think I'm getting some for all four of them this week.
