I had a client in my vet the other day with their very sick dog. He had contracted heartworm disease and wasn't in good shape. My client kept telling me they had never been told about heartworm medicine for dogs, all they knew was that dogs got fleas, so they bought flea medicine to protect them. I decided from that point I needed to get the message out there.

Teaching Clients From that day, everytime a client brought their pet to see me, I asked them whether they were giving them heartworm medication. I couldn't believe how many people told me they weren't and knew nothing about it. I directed them all to heartgard plus for dogs and told them they should go to the shops and grab some immediately.
