___ HW POSITIVE. Adopter agrees to have the dog treated for heartworm disease at the GPG veterinary clinic at the times and dates provided by the GPG clinic at time of adoption, if not done so already.

Adopter agrees to have the dog tested for heartworms 6-9 months after the dog's last heartworm treatment. This test can be done at the GPG clinic for no cost to the adopter or at the adopter's personal veterinarian at the adopter's expense.

I understand that GPG will not cover the cost of heartworm treatment at any other clinic besides their own.
___ NO HEARTWORM TEST. This animal was too young to test for heartworms while in our care. Adopter agrees to have the pet tested for heartworms at 9 months of age. Test to be completed at the adopter's chosen vet and at adopter's expense.
