21-JAN-26 - MEDICAL - MEDICAL WAIVER: HEART MURMUR, NO X-RAYS TAKEN What is the medical issue? A veterinarian listened to this patient's heart and detected a heart murmur. A murmur is caused by abnormal sounds that are made by turbulent blood in or near the heart. These abnormal sounds can be a result of multiple different causes. What has PRC done so far? No additional diagnostics were performed at this time due to the patient being asymptomatic. What can the adopter expect? Your primary veterinarian may recommend x-rays in the future. They may also recommend additional diagnostics or consultation with a cardiologist. Comments: Although this pet has a heart murmur, it is not currently showing any signs of heart disease. Please talk to your primary veterinarian before adopting this pet if you have any concerns about future care. If this pet is older, the heart murmur may not affect it for the remainder of its life; most geriatric heart murmurs are very slowly progressing issues. However, a small portion of animals with heart murmurs may have more advanced disease that can progress more quickly and cause other problems. *Note: Any memo with MEDICAL WAIVER heading is provided as standardized information about said medical issue. Memo may be edited to reflect individualized patient as needed*

21-JAN-26 - MEDICAL - HEARTWORM TREATED (TEMPLATE) What is the medical issue? This dog was diagnosed with Heartworm disease by a tabletop veterinary test that detects parts of the heartworms in the bloodstream. Heartworm disease is caused by large worms that live in the heart, lungs, and blood vessels, causing lung disease, heart failure, and other organ damage. What has PRC done so far? This dog was treated for this disease using a medication called "Diroban" that is injected into the large muscles of the back in order to kill the adult heartworms. Two injections were given 24 hours apart, according to FDA guidelines. This protocol kills about 90% of heartworms and is recommended for stage one and two heartworm disease. What can the adopter expect? This dog should receive heartworm prevention monthly year-round for the rest of the patient's life to prevent another heartworm infection. Next month's dose of prevention will be dispensed; you must follow up with your veterinarian for continued prevention. Your pet should be retested six months after treatment for heartworm disease, and then yearly thereafter. Your veterinarian may recommend additional diagnostics. Your veterinarian may recommend additional treatments. All further care is the responsibility of the adopter. Comments: Heartworm treatment is not benign. Some pets may have adverse reactions to heartworm treatment, including swelling at the injection site, pain, and respiratory issues. In rare cases the dying worms in the bloodstream might fall apart and cause a "thrombus" which is a blockage of a blood vessel. If this happens your pet might have respiratory distress and could die. Any activities that cause panting or increased heart rate can increase the risk of a thrombus. It is critical that your new pet is crate rested for 6 weeks following treatment and is only allowed to go outside for short periods of time on a leash to urinate and defecate. A medical staff member will go over any questions you may have at discharge.

25-NOV-25 - MEDICAL - HEARTWORM POSITIVE (TEMPLATE) What is the medical issue? This dog was diagnosed with Heartworm disease at the shelter. Heartworm disease is caused by large worms that live in the heart, lungs, and blood vessels, causing lung disease, heart failure, and other organ damage. What has PRC done so far? This dog has begun treatment for this disease. A 30 day course of doxycycline will be completed, followed by a 30 day 'rest' period. If this dog has not completed meds prior to adoption, you should receive a prescription to fill at a pharmacy to obtain remaining doses. Two months after diagnosis, if healthy enough for treatment as determined by PRC veterinarians, your dog can receive injections to kill adult heartworms at the PRC. This injection is a medication called "Diroban" which is injected into the large muscles of the back. Two injections are given 24 hours apart, per FDA guidelines. This protocol kills about 90% of heartworms and is recommended for stage 1 and 2 heartworm disease. Alternatively, adopters can elect to pursue heartworm treatment with their veterinarian. Your veterinarian may recommend additional diagnostics prior to treatment, or may recommend a slightly different protocol. What can the adopter expect? This dog should receive heartworm prevention monthly year-round for the rest of the its life to prevent another infection. Next month's dose of prevention will be dispensed; you must follow up with your vet for continued prevention.
