National Heartworm Awareness Month - Heartworm is a devastating, yet preventable disease spread by mosquitos. The mosquito's bite spreads microscopic baby worms (microfilaria) which mature and live in the heart. There are various options to prevent this deadly disease. Indoor dogs are not immune or safe from mosquitos, flies and mosquitos can get inside screen doors very easily, and most "indoor dogs" are not strictly indoor. Going outside for a few minutes is long enough to get bitten. Cats are not immune to this parasite, ask your veteriarian about prevention.
