So I was finally going to buy my own house. I had been saving for a down payment for quite some time and now I finally saved enough for the type of house I wanted. I had only gone looking a few times when I found my dream house. We went back and forth a few times, but in the end everything went quite smoothly. My closing is in a couple of days and I can not wait. It will be quite a change going from my small studio apartment to a house this size. There will even be enough room where I am designating a bedroom for my dog Spartacus. I am looking at some comfy dog beds for larger dogs so that he will feel comfortable sleeping on his own. It will be quite a change for the both of us, but he was getting a bit too large to be sleeping in bed with me.

This is a once a month treatment that destroys all heartworm larvae found in the system. This prevents the parasites developing into the breeding adults that cause health problems. To make giving your pet his monthly medication Merial have put the active ingredients inside a beefy chewable treat. Dogs love the fact that they are getting a snack that has real beef in it, so most will take their medicine with no problem at all.
To ensure the active medication is absorbed correctly the treat must be digested completely. To make sure this happens dogs should chew the tablet into bit sized bits. If your dog is one of those greedy souls that prefers to swallow things whole, just break the tablet up into smaller bits before giving to him.
