That tested positive when he was around 3 yrs. He is 11 now and fine.
We back we had a border collie poodle mix. She got heart worm when she was about 5 yrs and she passed away when she was 16.

Both pups came through it fine. The hardest part was keeping them quiet when they were going through the treatment.

I wouldn’t worry about your pup. 🐶
