If she already has heart worms it'll kill her. You have to get tested. If she doesn't you could use it for a preventative once a month. |

It won't kill your dog. U can't "treat" heartworms at home. You can only prevent. .10 cc per 10 lb of body weight. It's not recommended to give any dog that is heartworm positive a preventative but that being said ivermectin which is n heartguard is given to dogs that is heartworm positive dogs to people who can't or won't afford the treatment. Heartworms will die of old age.

A one year old dog will not have heart worms bad enough to kill it if treated!! Ivermectin will not kill the heart worm either it will kill the larva!!
