Current Location: Springfield, VA Hello! My name is Bulldozer! I'm coming to OPH on 3/13. Please check back soon for updates on my personality, and to see adorable new photos. I'm looking for my forever family! Is that with you? If so please click "apply for adoption" or submit an application through the Adopt tab. Let's get our family started! This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito producing a positive test in six months. The dog was treated for the disease prior to transport north. Potential adopters will receive detailed information on the disease and their role in completing the recovery process from OPH's heartworm coordinator. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable.
