Monthly Heartworm Meds:
Heartworm meds – this is what you will tell the vet you want to use. They should give you a free sample. You will buy from them until your pup is the minimum pound on the box. Then you can order through Chewy. You will put in your vet’s info and they will send the RX request to Chewy for you. Then you get it cheaper and delivered to your door. I only approve of Interceptor Plus, Advantage Multi, or ProHeart! Any other option voids your health guarantee.
