| I wouldn't risk it, although I understand the bad experience you had in the past! Everyone I have ever talked to recommends Heartgard, and that's what I use! |

| I understand your concern. It is much the same dilemma with vaccinations. However, I do vaccinate, just cautiously along with the concern of my vet, and I do use Heartworm preventative year round. I use Sentinel because of the flea protection all in one. Good luck with your decision. Welcome to Yorkie Talk!!
