HEARTWORM
Heartworm is a parasite transmitted by mosquitoes, that lives in your pet's heart.
Any pet travelling out of Alberta (excluding Saskatchewan) must be placed on monthly heartworm prevention.
A heartworm test must be done on pets that have travelled before starting prevention medication, heartworm infested dogs can have severe reactions if preventive medication is given.
A heartworm test is a quick blood test done in hospital.
Heartworm is fatal if not treated.
At Lomsnes Veterinary Hospital our primary concern is the health and happiness of your pet. We provide the treatment and education to help your pet live a happy and healthy life. Please watch our video and see what our hospital has to offer.
WE WILL BE CLOSED MONDAY MAY 21, 2012. HAVE A GREAT LONG WEEKEND!
