Heartworm Prevention in a Pregnant Female

Postby Bud Wendel » Mon Mar 14, 2011 8:54 am

I have a female that I bred and wanted to know what others have used for heartworm prevention during this period. I have read not to give any insecticides during pregnancy. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Bud,

any of the name brands, advantix multi, sentinel, etc are fine

Like greenhead said, all of the commercially available products are safe.

Ok I read that you couldnt use insecticides with pregnant bitch. Maybe they are talking about frontline or something like that?
