Section Two Canine Heartworm Disease Continues To be a Concern Throughout Ontario Canine heartworm disease, a serious serious illness affecting dogs, continues to be diagnosed in unprotected dogs throughout Ontario. Another 408 cases cases of canine heartworm disease were reported during 1992 alone. According to Dr. Walter Ingwer- sen, President-elect of the Ontario Veterinary Medical Association, "Heartworm is a potentially debilitating debilitating disease, however the good news is that it is preventable." Canine heartworm disease is caused by parasite worms that invade a dog's heart, resulting in impaired blood flow, and damage to the heart, lungs and liver. In cases where damage damage to the internal organs is extensive, extensive, the condition can be fatal. These recent statistics on heart- worm disease were compiled from a scientific survey of Ontario veterinarians veterinarians conducted by Dr. Owen Slo- combe, a parasitologist at the University University of Guelph. . Survey findings also reveal the number of communities where heart- worm disease was found. Dr. Ingwer- sen says that in 1992, the disease was reported in 78 towns and cities across Ontario. Heartworm is spread by mosquitoes mosquitoes which transmit the disease from infected dogs to healthy dogs. One dog can be the source of infection for a whole neighbourhood. "Public awareness is the key to fighting the spread of canine heart- worm disease," says Dr. Inewersen. In 1992 there were approximately 263,000 dogs protected from heart- worm disease by a heartworm preventive preventive medication. The Ontario Veterinary Medical Association has launched a major multi-media educational campaign to urge dog owners to consult their veterinarians veterinarians to leam more about canine heartworm disease and the importance importance of prevention.
