I have a 4 yr. old white husky. She's had 2 sets of puppies. She has always been so playful and full of energy, recently all of her fur started coming off of her chest. I took her to the vet--the vet gave her some antibiotics and spray. Precious started feeling better. Last week she really looked very bad and had no energy so I called the vet back and then took her in the following day. Tests, tests, tests. If your like me I have had all kinds of dogs and never given them any kind of heart worm medicine. So all this was foreign to me. No walking her till we get this cleared up --you may be asking --how long will that take?--2 or 3 months. I am writing this in hopes no one else will have to go through what I have with my dog.
Heart worms are a parasite transmitted by mosquitoes or fleas, that get in the bloodstream, esp. in the heart of dogs, and cats.
Some of the symptoms are:
vomiting
dirreha
losing weight
cough
I hope this will help others.
