Heartgard Plus for small dogs is a highly palatable tablet that prevents heartworm infections in dogs. The beef-flavored composition terminates the tissue stage of heartworm larvae for a month and eliminates juvenile heartworm infestation in small dogs. In addition, Heartgard Plus for up to 25 lbS dogs is also indicated for the treatment and control of roundworms and hookworms.
The oral heartworm preventative is recommended for 6 weeks and old dogs. What makes Heartgard Plus chewable a popular heartworm preventative is, it is easy to administer. The flavored tablet can be given to dogs by hand, directly in their mouth. Besides, it can also be added intact to a small quantity of Puppy food. Ideally, small dogs should be tested for heartworm infection before initiating treatment with Heartgard Plus.
Heartgard Plus chewable for small dogs is safe to use when given at the recommended dosage in breeding and pregnant dogs along with 6 weeks and older puppies.
Heartgard Plus Chewable treatment for heartworms is formulated combining two active ingredients, Ivermectin and Pyrantel. Ivermectin works on the tissue stage of heartworm larvae and stops heartworm infestation, whereas Pyrantel efficiently treats and controls roundworms and hookworm infections in small dogs.

The best thing about this product is my dog doesnt have to be dosed twice for his heartworm and roundworm treatments. It is supremely effecient..
I don't know how much the product saves my dog from heartworm but it definitely works best when I have to treat her for worm infection. I hope it is also protecting her from heartworm as well because recently I got her checked up and the vet told that she is perfectly healthy and has no signs of heartworms. Besides, she loves its beef flavor.
He didn't mind the treatment. Heartgard always a good product.
