Guest Gordon Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 Hears another one,heart worm:mosquito-transmitted,but found mostly in the Carmargue area. Of coarse tick and tapeworm. Gordon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alan Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Yet another danger is a fatal disease called leashmenisis(or similar spelling)which is carried by mosquitoes.There is no cure for this disease.If you go to a Spanish vet you can buy a plastic collar which gives 6 months protection for a few euros.The collar still works even if your dog likes going into the sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
