Hj everyone, I have a dog and need more worm treatment as the supply from the UK vet is now depleted.

I want advice from you lovely dog owners out there as to whether I should buy it from a pet store in Nerja or go to a vet for it? 

I am aware it's called heartworm prevention and need to get it asap.  

Advices awaited! 🙂

Debra (and George the cockerpoo)

Hi

I would recommend going to a reputable vet first in your area before you visit the chemist. Very informative website for you below

I will find a good vet, hopefully, and get the right stuff.

Thanks for your reply.  So difficult to decide how to do and what to do at first, but thanks for your tips.
