Bessie is a beautiful 4 year old girl, very friendly, 72 lbs and looks well cared for. She is has a beautiful coat. She was intact when she came to us and had obviously had at least one litter. Bessie speaks no English, but she is smart, pays attention and will learn quickly.
Bessie had never received any heartworm preventative and is, entirely predictably, infected with heartworm. She will undergo the standard treatment protocol over the next three months.
If you are interested in adopting a dog that has been treated for heartworm disease, but worried about the long term effects on its health, please know that these dogs can live normal healthy lives following treatment. We suggest that you consult your own vet to confirm this. Then don't be afraid to lose your heart to one of these dogs. You can learn more about this horrible disease from The American Heartworm Society at http://www.heartwormsociety.org/ This dog is currently in one of our wonderful Foster Homes for evaluation and lots of love. All of our dogs stay in their Foster Homes for a minimum two week evaluation period, then remain there until their Forever Home finds them.
