The answer is YES! Although there are fewer mosquitoes in the winter, there is still a risk that your pet could get heartworms. Mosquitos are constantly changing and adapting to colder climates, so it is highly recommended to give heartworm prevention year-round.
If you have questions about heartworm prevention or need to refill your pet’s prescription, give us a call or make an appointment. ⬇
