I have never done a message board before so I hope this helps.
I have 3 dogs- CeCe (6-greyhound mix), Toby (31/2 lab mix), and Harley (1 1/2 Shih Tsu). Last Novemeber we were forced to move from N. Florida to SW Florida. We had to rent and therefore couldnt take the 2 big dogs with us. We found them a home together with a neighbor of ours- who happened to be our daughters school bus driver. Anyhow, 2 weeks ago we got the phone call that she needed to get rid of them and was going to take them to the pound, my husband drove up there and got them. We took them to the vets this past Saturday to find out that CeCe has tested "medium" for heartworms and will need to have "the treatment", the one where they are needed to be kenneled for 6 weeks. no questions asked we scheduled it for tomorrow, we don't want to loose her. I am scared because I really dont know much about the procedures and if there are any other treatments that arn't so dangerous. ANY HELP, INSIGHT, SUGGESTIONS... WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks!
