How Heartgard Plus works
Heartgard Plus prevents canine heartworm disease by eliminating the tissue stage of heartworm larvae (Dirofilaria immitis) for a month (30 days) after infection and for the treatment and control of ascarids (Toxocara canis, Toxascaris leonina) and hookworms (Ancylostoma caninum, Uncinaria stenocephala, Ancylostoma braziliense).
How can you properly administer Heartgard Plus?
Heartgard Plus (ivermectin/pyrantel) should be administered orally at monthly intervals at the recommended minimum dose level of 6 mcg of ivermectin per kilogram (2.72 mcg/lb) and 5 mg of pyrantel (as pamoate salt) per kg (2.27 mg/lb) of body weight. The recommended dosing schedule for the prevention of canine heartworm disease and for the treatment and control of ascarids and hookworms is as follows:
Dog Weight Chewables per month Ivermectin Pyrantel Color coding
Up to 25 lbs 1 68 mcg 57 mcg Blue
26 to 50 lbs 1 136 mcg 114 mcg Green
51 to 100 lbs 1 272 mcg 228 mcg Brown
Heartgard Plus is recommended for dogs 6 weeks of age and older. For dogs over 100 lb use the appropriate combination of these chewables.
What are the precautions in using Heartgard Plus?
All dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment with Heartgard Plus which is not effective against adult D. immitis. Infected dogs must be treated to remove adult heartworms and microfilariae before initiating a program with Heartgard Plus. While some microfilariae may be killed by the ivermectin in Heartgard Plus at the recommended dose level, Heartgard Plus is not effective for microfilariae clearance. A mild hypersensitivity-type reaction, presumably due to dead or dying microfilariae and particularly involving a transient diarrhea, has been observed in clinical trials with ivermectin alone after treatment of some dogs that have circulating microfilariae.

always great service
I have been using Pet Shed for over 10 years and I can't say enough good things about them! The web site is simple and easy to use. Products are priced lower than I can find anywhere and they are the same high quality products I can get from my vet... with the convenience of having them delivered to my home! Speaking of delivered to your door step, they are always prompt and never have any problems. Best deal ever ! I'm a customer for life ! jl vinson hideaway, tx
ALWAYS ! ! ! Keep the furry love of my life HEALTHY!
Sophie, my five year old golden retriever bring lots of furry love and kisses to the residents, who are dying of incurable illnesses at my work. She is always available to be there for them when they need a puppy hug or big slobbery kiss. Many have uncontrollable movements which cause them to pet her a little rough. She seems to know they don't mean it. She can sense the need they have for her to sit there and be loved. I will always give her Heartgard Plus to keep her healthy and happy to be here for them and for me. She is my best friend, my reason to get out and exercise and brings me smiles, laughter and love. She loves the good tasting chewable pill and looks forward to it as a special treat!
Best online company there is

I will for sure tell others about this site. thank you
Great prices and timely deliveries.
I have been purchasing products from PET SHED for 4 or 5 years now.I have yet to find a store or website that compares price wise to to these guys.This particular time i purchased Heartgard Plus for my dog but i also buy all of my flea prevention products from Pet Shed.Try Pet Shed once and they will be the ONLY place that you purchase your pet products.
better prices for pet medications
I am a first time shopper with pet shed and am very excited to see that the prices for medications that I buy at the vets office are much cheaper. I have four large dogs and also rescue and feed stray cats . Ive managed to get the cats spayed and vaccinated with the help of local animal rescues. however when it comes to my own dogs, it costs a fortune to make sure they have all the medications and treatments they need. I finally found a website that doesn't take advantage of people who love their pets.
Heartgard Plus
My dogs love Heartgard Plus. They think it's a treat. They love getting it every month. No hassle giving my dogs their heartworm pills.

Tasty and effective
I've been giving this to my dogs for years and surprisingly they've all liked the taste. It resembles a piece of meat, so maybe that's why dogs like it so much. Since my dogs have never been afflicted by heat worm this product is very effective.
