Monthly Heartworm Prevention Advice | Marc Smith, DVM, MS

Welcome to @MarcSmithveterinarian, your go-to resource for pet health advice! Should you give your dog heartworm prevention meds year-round—or only when mosquitoes are active? In this video, Marc Smith, DVM, MS, breaks down: How heartworm medicine works Why timing matters—even in colder months What many dog owners misunderstand about microfilaria The truth about "backward protection" and ivermectin-based meds Why he recommends monthly heartworm prevention regardless of season Even in states like Tennessee, mosquitoes can be active in winter months. That means skipping doses could leave your dog vulnerable to heartworm disease. Dr. Smith’s Advice: Stick with a 30-day heartworm prevention schedule, like Heartgard or other ivermectin-based medications. It's simple, safe, and effective.
