lol ye does it say anyting specific like our dogs get it all the time XD those people are trying to be like you 2 preventing it.. doesn't mean their dogs there get em now does it ... AND AGAIN I SAY.. read!!!!!! lol you people need to read closesly you're too frustrated to concentrate and to prove your point to me that you don't observe things properly... i know THEY exist in dogs and other pets.. i'm saying what my vet and vets have told me and my research.. so don't be mean to me shouting and such and by the way positive due means the dog has a better chance on getting it then the other dogs .. means she's more prone to get them..

Neither of us shouted and I'm not shouting now. If your vet says "They never really happen" that's not true. Cause it does really happen, for real. If she was correct than, it wouldn't be a problem. If they were that rare, medication for treating it and preventing it would be harder to find.

haha holly cow XD .. she never said it doesn't... she said IT NEVER REALLY HAPPENS lol .. geez she meant basically is.. it's like a once in a life time occurrence and go complain to my vet in Pompey bout it (Portsmouth, U.K just to let you know) and don't complain to me.. i'm only saying what i was told and what i was read so sheesh .. and plus no need to be mad at me i was saying what i was saying we call that.. "Expressing what we think" .. and the medication exist just for vets to make money and for you (owners generally) to worry bout their loyal companions and to buy it.. it's called advertising.. like on TV and computers.. just like medication for people.. we don't always need w.e things to make us better somethings our bodies can tackle

Um... what?


Is that the only way you can back up your own argument, insisting that Emily and I aren't reading? Because we are, and I'm pretty sure we both got the same message: "Heartworms are uncommon and you shouldn't make such a big deal about preventing them."
Or, if that's not what you're saying, you need to make it clearer. Your sentences are really hard to read.


That's what Emily just said. >.>


According to that page I just gave you, it's not that uncommon. 1 in 1000? I don't think so. 6 dogs on that page had heartworm, and I'm pretty sure there weren't 6000 dogs there.


I'll be sure to take it up with her, thanks.


Doesn't mean it's true. Nobody should ever take a gamble with their pets' health, no matter what they've been told.


You're telling me it's all a scam? WOW! And here I was, imagining I could guarantee my dogs a long, healthy life, but now I should just screw it. It never really happens anyway. Just a way for that stupid vet of mine to steal my money. I'm totally pissed right now.
Um, yeah, not really. The medication exists to prevent heartworm. That's why it's called Heartworm Preventative.


Some things they can't, heartworm being one of them. And another thing. Dogs are not humans. Don't assume their bodies can fight off anything thrown at them.
BTW, this is coming from someone who refuses to have flu and cancer shots, but is pretty confident she'll get neither. Go me.

lol w.e .. i was only saying what i had to say i'm not gonna argue about this lame stuff.. and plus many of the people i know never have gave their pets heart warm prevention.. and they lived to be like 13-15 around that and one dog i know who's 20 lol and was never givin shots and the prevention .. lol so ye i'm not gonna bother bout this *** topic cuz it's going nowhere lol just besides you two trying to had to prove me wrong then why don't you guys go search for what i heard about.. .. ut ha w.e .. so tell me once you've talked to my vets .. and tell me what they've told you i wanna hear
