Test At Home: Mail Order Heartworm And Lyme Disease
Heartworm is one of the most common diseases among dogs. And if not diagnosed, lyme disease and feline leukemia can need veterinarian treatment. Does your pet have them? You used to have to go to the vet to find out. But now you don’t have to. Watch this film to find out why.

Heartworm Disease
-
Heartworm is one of the most common diseases among dogs. If not diagnosed, Lyme Disease and Feline Leukemia are also serious conditions and require veterinary treatments. Testing for these conditions used to mean a trip to the vets office, but now that’s changing.

Test Your Own Pet
-
“We’ve given value. We’ve given them convenience, and we’ve saved the trip to the veterinarian.” Thanks to a new product called Test At Home, you can test your own pet in the privacy of your very own home for deadly diseases like heartworm, lyme, erlichia, and even feline leukemia. It’ll save you the time, hassle, and money of taking your pet to the vet.

Step 3:
-
Blood Sample
-
Here’s how it works: you must first collect a blood sample from your pet. This is done by cutting the nail down to the quick. This is the part of the nail that contains blood vessels. After collecting 3-6 drops of blood, the sample is then mailed to a laboratory. The results are emailed or faxed to you.

Benefits of the Test
-
“We still have roughly 56% of the people out there that never have the chance to test their animals. They can afford to test for all three diseases for less than what it would cost for an office call…”
The savings are substantial. A heartworm test at the vet usually costs around $40 bucks for the visit, and another $30 for the test. A heartworm test at home costs $29.95. The take home tests are very accurate. In fact, they’re essentially the same test kit your vet uses. There’s no question cutting your dog’s nail quick will cause a bit of discomfort, but in this case, no pain, no gain.
