Our dogs were protected already because we have been giving them ivermectin once a month, for heartworm, another roundworm. We were told by our vet that ivermectin will protect dogs from angiostrongylus as well. This is used on horses and other mammals. "Revolution" a spot for cats, protects against heartworm and roundworm so probably has ivermectin in it. Ivermectin can be bought at Del#699;s and is much cheaper than getting heartworm pills for dogs from the vet. As it comes in a large tube, just be careful of the dosing. We soak the dose up in a bread ball.
