April is heartworm awareness month, which means it’s that time of year when your veterinarian may want to check your dog or cat for heartworm disease.
Heartworms are transmitted through the bite of a mosquito, which carries immature larvae from the parasite.
Heartworm in pets is a serious and potentially fatal disease that is caused by foot-long worms (heartworms) that live in the heart, lungs, and associated blood vessels of affected dogs and cats. The heartworm can cause severe lung disease, heart failure, and damage to other organs in the body. It affects dogs, cats, and other mammals such as wolves, coyotes, foxes, sea lions, and in rare instances humans. Thankfully, in my practice, I only see a few cases of heartworm in dogs a year. Although, even in those few instances, the conversation with the animal’s guardian is always difficult as the treatment is hard on my patients, and can be costly.
Like most pathogenic infections, the earlier a diagnosis can be made the better chance for recovery. Be sure to have your dog or cat checked this spring for heartworm disease.
How is Heartworm disease in pets transmitted?
Heartworms are transmitted through the bite of a mosquito, which carries immature larvae from the parasite Dirofilaria immitis. These larvae enter into the pet’s skin through the mosquito bite. From the site of the mosquito bite, the larvae molt and travel through the pet’s body, until they enter the pet’s heart and pulmonary vessels in the lungs. Once in the pulmonary vessels they grow, pushing up until some reach the pulmonary artery.
The now mature heartworm reproduces, creating microfilaria, which circulates in the bloodstream of the pet. When a mosquito bites the infected pet and takes a blood meal, it picks up the microfilaria. When this mosquito then bites another pet, it transmits the infection.
Once mature, the heartworm can live up to 5-7 years in dogs, and 2-3 years in cats. Since the heartworm can live so long, this can lead to an increasing number of worms in an animal as a pet becomes infected over and over each mosquito season.
How is Heartworm in pets diagnosed?
Heartworm infection in both cats and dogs is diagnosed by a blood test. If the test is positive, other tests will be ordered to diagnose the stage of heartworm disease. Heartworm testing should begin at 7 months in a puppy, and annually in adult pets if protected with prevention.
What are the signs and symptoms of Heartworms in pets?
Unfortunately, there are few clinical signs in the early stages of the disease, which is why testing is so important. As the disease advances, dogs may exhibit a cough, decreased interest in exercise, fatigue after moderate activity, decreased appetite, and weight loss. As the disease further progresses, signs of heart failure ensue, including worsening respiratory signs and cough, swollen belly, and in worst cases “caval syndrome”, which is a form of cardiovascular collapse.
With cats, the signs of heartworm can be extremely subtle or very severe. Symptoms may include coughing, asthma-like attacks, vomiting, lack of appetite, and weight loss. Unfortunately, the first sign of heartworm disease in some cats is sudden collapse or even death.
Prevention
Heartworm disease has been diagnosed in 50 states. Protecting your pet with good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle that includes heartworm prevention is the best thing you can do.
Natural supplements, such as NHV Hearty Heart, and natural parasite cleansers like NHV Inulin PK may help with heartworm disease.
For extra support, I would also recommend NHV Stimmune, as well as NHV Milk Thistle, and the superherb NHV Turmeric, which will help support your pet’s body.
Natural mosquito deterrents are also recommended.

Stimmune helps balance the immune system and helps ease allergy symptoms that can make your dog miserable. Stimmune is an all-natural, vet-formulated dog allergy immune supplement that will help your pet deal with dog food allergies as well as other immune related disorders.
Stimmune can provide dog allergy help with allergic reactions related to food, as well as environmental allergies including reactions to fleas, insect bites, food and other environmental factors. For more acute seasonal or environmental allergies, please try Alge-Ex for a remedy specifically formulated for your dog.
Symptoms of Allergies in Dogs
- Hot Spots
- Sneezing
- Difficulty breathing
- Face scratching or rubbing
- Ear infection
- Watery eyes
Causes of Allergies in Dogs
- Allergenic Food - chicken and beef can often be culprits
- Fleas & Insect Bites
- Environmental factors such as dust mites, pollen and other irritants
An allergy is an overreaction of the immune system to a normally harmless substance called an antigen. Allergies in dogs often occur when allergens are inhaled, ingested, or absorbed by the body. When this occurs, the immune system becomes over-reactive to substances it believes are harmful. This reaction causes a release of histamine, causing the common allergy symptoms in your pet.
The cause of allergies in dogs can be difficult to determine. While it is always best to eliminate the cause altogether, like omitting a specific food from their diet, some causes can be nearly impossible to totally eradicate, like dust mites or pollen. This is where a dog allergy supplement that is taken daily can help relieve your loved one of common allergens, even when you're not exactly sure what they are allergic to.
The Four Most Common Skin Conditions in Pets
- Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD)

These supplements are not intended to treat existing heartworm infections. They can safely be used in conjunction with your veterinarian's recommended regimen of pharmaceutical heartworm treatment to help support your pet's body through the treatment of heartworm.
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.

HEARTY-HEART
Hawthorne – the most powerful herb for the heart health in dogs. Hawthorn acts as a cardio tonic, which helps stabilize the heart’s activity based on what a dog’s heart needs; either to be stimulated or reduced. Hawthorn has traditionally been used for heart failure, heart palpitations, heart weakness, and for the circulatory system. This herb works by dilating the vessels and the coronary arteries, which improves the metabolic process and the blood supply to the heart and the rest of the body. Hawthorn may help with regulating your dog’s heart rate, coronary flow, and blood pressure. It also has a soothing and sedative effect that helps reduce stress.
Balsam Poplar – Encourages circulation and supports blood flow. Balsam Poplar has historically been used in North America by indigenous peoples for coughs, respiratory issues, and as a food for horses. This herb has strong anti-inflammatory and discomfort relieving properties.

Description
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.
