HEARTWORM ON THE RISE | |
There was a time when many believed heartworm medication was unnecessary during the winter or mosquito-free months. Not true! The American Heartworm Society recommends pets be tested each year and that preventative be administered each month -- on time. The Society also notes that prevention costs less than 10% of the cost to treat the disease.

YOU HOPE IT NEVER HAPPENS | |
You hope it never happens, but despite best efforts a dog can slip away.
Nearly one in five pets disappears after being scared by thunderstorms, fireworks or other loud noises. And even if your dogs are used to loud noises, all that boundless energy and enthusiasm that helps them find birds can get them into trouble.

Also of note is a litter with FC-AFC Watermark's Mardi Gras that produced three titled dogs (out of five in competition).
