Ziggy, unfortunately, was not on heartworm prevention. He is heartworm positive, but the medicine he needs to kill them is on a manufacturer backorder. Ziggy is on the wait list for heartworm treatment and it's expected to take place in March or May. He will be fully vetted and is healthy otherwise, so no reason for him to wait to find a permanent home. CARE will still provide his heartworm treatment when the product becomes available (adoption fee is set, nothing extra required for treatment, but treatment must be done through our local Vet). In the meantime, he has been put on prevention which will keep him from getting any more heartworms.

All dogs receive a distemper/parvovirus vaccine(s), kennel cough vaccine, rabies vaccine, dewormer, monthly heartworm prevention, microchip, and are spayed/neutered through CARE.
