Can dogs have heartworm treatment more then once?
I have a 5 year old black retriever. About two years ago we found out he had heartworms. We did the extensive treatment and got rid of them. Since then he has been on heartworm preventative. Recently he started coughing like he did when he had heartworms. I am taking him to the vet this Saturday, to get him checked. My question is, can dogs have the treatment twice? I have heard that they can only do it once because their hearts can't handle the treatment more then that. If anyone knows, please help!
