heartworm support
Heartworm in Dogs
Heartworm in dogs is a serious and potentially fatal disease caused by foot-long worms that can live inside your pet’s heart, lungs, and associated blood vessels. Mosquitoes transfer these parasites from one animal to another, so whenever your dog has some outdoor access, they are at risk of infection. That’s why being proactive is essential in the fight against heartworms, particularly during the hotter months when many pets increase their exposure to the outside world.

Schedule a consultation with one of our expertsWhat causes heartworms in dogs?
Heartworms are transmitted through the bite of a mosquito, which carries immature larvae from the parasite Dirofilaria immitis from an infected animal host to a new pet. From the mosquito bite site, the larvae travel through the pet’s body all the way to the heart and pulmonary vessels in the lungs, where it matures into a full-grown worm and reproduces.
What are the clinical signs of heartworms in dogs?
Unfortunately, there are few clinical signs in the early stages of the disease, which is why testing is so important. As the disease advances, the most common symptoms are:
- Coughing
- Exercise intolerance
- Failure to grow
- Difficulty breathing
- Blue or purplish discoloration of the skin and gums
- Spitting up blood
- Fainting
- Nose bleeding
- Accumulating fluid in the abdominal cavity
- Weight loss
- Lethargy
What are the diagnostic tests for heartworms in pets?
An early diagnosis can go a long way regarding heartworms in dogs. The veterinarian will choose the tests used based on the clinical signs. Chest X-rays and routine laboratory tests, for example, can help detect the presence of a parasite. An antigen test can detect heartworm proteins released by adult female heartworms into the animal’s bloodstream for a confirmed diagnosis.
What are the treatment options for heartworms in dogs?
In extreme cases, pets with heartworms may collapse or even die if left untreated. For this reason, early diagnosis and immediate vet care are essential.
There are a few options for heartworm disease treatment in dogs. Although necessary, the pharmaceuticals currently available to address this parasite can cause serious side effects like toxicity or life-threatening blood clots in the dog’s lungs. Natural herbal supplements can be used in conjunction with vet-prescribed medication to help support the pet’s body through the treatment.
Another less viable treatment option for dogs is the removal of heartworms surgically. However, this type of operation comes with risks, and if the parasites are not removed intact, there can be potentially severe complications, including death.
How can I take care of a pet with heartworms?
The most important thing that pet owners can do to protect their furkiddo from heartworm disease is prevention. Several effective medications that safely prevent parasitic infections are available. Please talk to your vet before medicating your pup.
However, if your little one already has heartworms, the best you can do is follow the vet’s recommendations, offer a balanced diet, add complementary supplements to their regimen, and of course, give a lot of love. All those measures will help to support your little one’s immunity to fight against this disease.

Which supplements are suggested?
Some NHV supplements may help your little one prevent this disease or support their body as they are treated to fight the infection.
NHV Hearty-Heart contains herbs that support the heart’s function and health, which is significantly affected by heartworms.
NHV Inulin-PK can help repair internal damage that might have been caused by parasites and help relieve the discomfort heartworms can cause.
NHV Milk Thistle is very beneficial in protecting the liver and kidneys against the side effect of the medications used to treat and prevent heartworm disease.
As it is a disease that affects the lungs, NHV Resp-Aid may help decrease the inflammation and help your little one to breathe better.
Lastly, NHV Turmeric and NHV PetOmega 3 have anti-inflammatory properties that support the lungs and heart. So, they may be beneficial for a pet suffering from heartworm disease.
These supplements are not intended to solely treat existing heartworm infections. This is a very extreme parasite infestation, and immediate vet support is needed. All NHV supplements can be safely given alongside vet-prescribed medication. We recommend a break of at least 30 minutes between our supplements and the pharmaceuticals.
It’s also important to point out that each case is unique, and in the same way that the vet-prescribed treatment might vary, so can the natural supplements. Therefore, if your furkiddo has heartworm disease, please contact one of our pet experts, who can guide you on the best regimen for your little one.

Heartworms are spread to pets through the bites of mosquitos. Once passed to a pet, the heartworm larva begins to grow and mature in the bloodstream of the pet. After 6 months these worms become mature and take up residence in the heart of the pet. This obviously has detrimental effects on the health of the pet. While pharmaceutical treatment for this parasite is necessary, the treatment can also put quite a bit of stress on the body. Hearty-Heart will help to support your pet's heart and circulatory system, while Inulin-PK will help to repair any damage caused by the parasites. Milk Thistle is a support for the liver, which is important in helping the body to process the harsh pharmaceutical medications required to treat heartworm.
