Fear Not. There is an herbal heartworm treatment that is very effective and much less dangerous to your dog’s health. I have used it and cured my dog’s heartworms with it.
About 10 years ago I took my dog (Beagle) Buddy in off the street and when I took him to the vet for a checkup and shots he tested positive for heartworms. They put him through the immiticide treatment which I cannot tell you how horrible it is and for 30 days afterward the dog has to be kept very quiet and can only be taken out in the yard on a leash to go to the bathroom. Its a nightmare. Anyway after 6 mos they re-tested and told me he was still testing weak positive for heartworms and they wanted to put Buddy through this treatment again. I was horrified. So I went online and started educating myself on heartworms.
I found an herbal alternative which had been developed by a lady in Atlanta where I live. Her dog Bandit had developed heartworms and the doctors said he was too old to treat. She researched the herbal way and came up with a remedy which cured her dog of the heartworms. I contacted an holistic vet who was familiar with the herbal treatment and she said my dog was probably a good candidate since he was not exhibiting any symptoms yet. She said to keep Buddy on his monthly heartworm (Heartguard Plus) meds and then give him the herbal treatment on top of it. I contacted Robin Sockness Bandit’s owner directly and she was good enough to call me on the phone and discuss the treatment. I purchased the herbs and began the daily regimen. 4 months later I took Buddy in for a heartworm test and he tested negative. He has never had a positive test since. The vet is still trying to come up with some other explanation for the cure.
Bottom line foks the vets will seldom if ever tell you this stuff but if your dog has a very mild case of heartworms and you just keep the dog on the Heartguard Plus in about 12 mos the few worms he has will die of old age and the monthly treatment will keep any other worms from forming.
I am posting the website to go to for Bandit’s cure. The main thing to remember is that you need to purchase the herbs from Nature’s Sunshine and you have to maintain the daily regimen pretty strictly. After about 4 mos your dog should be cured. Don’t forget to keep them on their monthly heartworm pill during treatment. This stuff really works. I will never ever put another dog through that immiticide treatment.
