Quick View: I have a 10 year old Jack Russell Terrier who hates taking pills. I have suffered through sticking them down his throat, sneaking them to him in food (only to have him spit them out), and crushing them. At last, I can protect Mickey from heartworm year round with chewable preventative medication...

My vet suggested that I give my two Shih-poo puppies Heartgard as a preventative measure against heartworm.  Well, like anyone who treats their dogs like their kids, I did my due diligence.  Just so you all know:

Most veterinarians will recommend giving a daily or monthly pill to prevent heartworms,...

After having nursed my inlaw's dog through heartworm treatment, I will never let my dogs go without heartworm pills. The treatment is hard on even a young dog, and elderly dogs really suffer. (Plus it's expensive, and it's NOT optional. Heartworms are slow killers, but killers nonetheless.)

Thank God for Heartgard making it easy!

The brick-shaped chewables are soft and smell like treats. My dogs will actually do tricks to earn them. The size of the doses ranges from about an inch long for the little dogs to about an inch and a half for the biggest. If you have a dog larger than 100lbs (like I do)...

Heartworm prevention is so important for EVERY dog. I love HeartGard because it is a flavored chewable that my dog loves to eat. Some people dont understand how serious and dangerous heartworms are. I work at a Vet Hospital that does a lot of work with rescue groups and we see countless dogs come in that are infected. And although the treatment is generally safe, it is expensive and some dogs are still lost because of such severe infections. So to anyone that is a dog owner and is considering whether or not to purchase Heartgard, PLEASE DO! If you dont like Heartgard there are also other brands... review »

Heartgard is a great thing!  My dogs actually look forward to taking their monthly medicine.  I've given Heartgard to three different dogs.  Two of those dogs are generally pretty picky.  They won't eat just any old biscuit.  They love their Heartgard chewies!  They will even do tricks for 'em.  When my boys gobble them down they are always looking for more.  They look at me and I can tell they're thinking "But Mommy we did good tricks for those treats.  Why can't we have more?!".  Sorry boys!  Only once a month.  Heartgard.....they're just that good!

I have an indoor only cat, that was a stray when I took her in 12 years ago. Because of her age I take her to the veterinarian at least twice a year, and once a year she has blood work done. My veterinarian recommended heartgard as a proactive measure, because a few months ago she had fleas. The thing is I can't get her to take the pill. And its so large that I won't just shove it in like any other medicine. I think it is probably the flavor, as she is a HUGE fan of fish, and not so much of beef.

While working at a veterinary clinic i'll be the first to tell Heartworms are horrible parasites. But since heartgard they are not cheap to prevent and very expensive to treat. Heartworm treatment on dogs are a horrible process, a large needle must be stuck straight into thier heart and usually after and during treatment the dogs are lethargic, throw up and are just plain miserable. Heartgard Prevents this and makes it so your furry friend doesn't have to go through this painstaking experience. So be a responsible pet owner and prevent heartworms.

I'll never forget my first "introduction" to Heartguard many years ago, in the reception area of our veterinarian's office. On the counter, for all to see, was a clear glass jar. The contents inside the jar were a "piece of meat" entangled with "spaghetti-like" strands. In actuality, it was the preserved heart of an unfortunate dog who had contracted heartworm! What I saw here was so GROSS! I remember thinking to myself that there was no way any dog would be able to function with a heart that was literally being suffocated by so many worms! Needless to say, my dogs have always been on Heartguard....

My bulldog loves the chewables..they must take like treats.  She is an 8-month old puppy that can tell when you try to give her any sort of pill, but since these are chewable, we just tell her they are treats and down it goes!

Heartgard is a monthly item that needs to be given to your dog to prevent heart worms.

This is a very important item in sustaining your dog's health.  It comes in 6-month supply packages and is beefy flavor; therefore, making it very appealing to your dog.  My dog just gobbles these right up.

I feel very confident in this item.  Have owned 3 dogs. My 2 dogs in the past lived for 13 & 14 years. I always gave them vitamins and Heartgard.

I plan to follow the same routine with my now 16 month old American Staffordshire Terrior.  He is my ~baby~ and will only give him the best to keep him healthy....

I have given my dogs heartguard for years and I never buy it from the Vet.  They are so overpriced.  I found a place on line where it is so much more reasonable and with 4 dogs i have to watch my pennies. 

I had two dogs get heartworms many, many years ago and was able to save both of them but that is not an experience I would want to go thru again.

My dog's name is Bebe and I love him like, I assume, any proud pet owner would. My loyal, cute and smart chow Bebe now and then has to fight that worm problem and I can't tell you enough, how much Heartgard Plus Chewables helps me to deal with this problem. And I must add, that Bebe gets his relief almost instantly... or it seems so. He starts to act differently almost right away... a lot calmer and enjoys his treats much, much better. Thank you for this wonderful remedy!!!

Heartguard is a simple, easy way to protect your pet from heartworm, and my dog LOVES them! I have to hide the package from him so he doesn't eat the whole thing. This is the only "medicine" I give hime that I don't have to hide in a pill pocket or some kind of food to get him to take it.
