Purrley,
My dog Buddy has been on heartworm RX all
of his life.He is 8 yrs now.Bud took tabs
based on weight when he was a pup, and later
switch to chewable Heartgard(ivermectin/
pyrantel) as he grew bigger.One per month,
6 doses in a package for $30.00. Not that
much really for the "peace of mind" of knowing they are protected.
Besides preventing heartworm disease the RX
also treats & controls ascarid & hookworm
in dogs. Bud weights over 100 lbs so your
baby girl's RX would be a lot less..
Please do it....
