    Which heartworm med for puppy

    My English Bulldog pup is 5 months at 30 pounds..
     
    Vet wants me start her on heartworm med on Sept 1.
     
    Which one should I use?  I've only used Heartguard in the past and maybe I should worry about the other worms for a puppy?  Maybe use Interceptor?

    Personally, I've used Interceptor with success.  Right now, I am just using Ivermectin.  It seems to be a litter easier on my dogs stomach.

    I use Interceptor, and I've also used Heartgard in the past. I like both, but I prefer Interceptor, and my dogs really don't care if it's a chewable tablet instead of a soft, meaty-looking snack.
