Heartworms question - 01/06/20 10:23 PM
My cur had a litter of pups early november. She usually gets real wormy during weining so I have to keep a close eye on her. Well, I wormed her with happy jack, which is what I've always used, as soon as she whelped. I wormed again early december. She put weight on for a week or so then she started looking wormy again. I sold her to a fella with the agreement that if she tested positive for heart worms at his vet, we'd call the deal off. She did test positive and I have an appt with my vet tomorrow.
My question is, if a dog has other worms, will it show up as positive on the heart worm test?
She was wormed 2 days before the test and has already started looking better a week later. I have doubled up her food as well, which is a high fat/protein content.
