The funds raised from our
Have A Heart Calendar Contest will benefit the many dogs in our foster program affected by heartworm and tick borne disease complications. We are a huge proponent of heartworm slow kill treatment and our program is
very successful.
The dogs in our program currently are featured in the hearts of our promo banner and this contest is dedicated to Clancy- a Pointer that has struggled for 2 years with several complicated health issues due to her heartworm disease and co infections. The medical expenses to help one of these dogs with vetting discounts if the dog is negative at the 12 month mark can run as high as $1,000 with the cost of the following:
- Heartworm test $25
- CBC/Chem $100
- 371 Tick Panel $130
- Spay/Neuter $100
- Medications and Heartguard $200
We currently have 9 dogs going through this treatment plan, including Clancy.
