Many more pet owners want to give a monthly medication to protect against heartworms but may not be able to afford some of the prices.

The good news is that there are alternative to the more highly branded and expensive items. One of the most popular and cheap ways to protect from heartworms is to use Proheart for Dogs. It is a very cheap heartworm medicine that works just as well as more expensive options.

And Collie owners will be pleased to know that it is safe for their Dogs unlike brands such as Heartgard which contain Ivermectin. The low price means that we can buy six months of Proheart pills for less than $20. This makes it very affordable indeed. It is known as a generic because of the low price and this will normally mean that it comes in much simpler packaging to keep the cost down, but this in no way reflects on the quality of the ingredients or how effective it can be.

Generics in all forms are a great way to save money and for our pets meds it is often a very good choice. Especially because many of us have more than one animal to look after and it can become very expensive. It is better to buy a non branded product for a low price than to not be able to afford the treatments our pets need on a regular basis.

And Proheart for Dogs is a very good choice for anyone who simply wants an effective treatment for heartworms. And the fact that it does not contain Ivermectin means that it is the perfect choice for Collies as they often do not react well to products that contain Ivermectin as many of the leading brands do. For under $20 to protect our pets for six months this is about the most cost effective product on the market at present.
