    This in response to papap's post...

    Monthly heartworm medication is expensive. One method used by hunters who have several dogs and need to save money is to use a horse heartworm treatment called EquiMax. It sells for about $10 and will last all year for approximately 90% savings per dog. Available at feed stores or online.

    Caution: off-label treatment not indicated for dogs, but contains the same active ingredient (ivermectin) as the expensive heartworm medication brands commonly used for dogs.... in a larger dose. It is in paste form so most hunters just use a smaller oral dose for their dogs.

    I asked a veterinarian about this with my yellow Lab and he had no problem with using. Just something to consider researching and/or asking your own vet about, not a recomendation.
