Hola Dallas Voice readers, and welcome back to my monthly Woof column. First of all, thank you all for supporting me over the last four years, and thank you to those who voted for my Isla Veterinary Boutique Hospital in Addison, as we just recently won our fifth Dallas Voice Readers Voice Award for Best Veterinarian.
I opened Isla Vet five years ago, and we have won the RVA every single year since. That is a big honor and a very humbling experience for me.
Thank you, Dallas Voice and voters for making that happen. Also, congratulations to the rest of the winners, and let us continue supporting our community and our allies.
Well, let us jump right into my Woof column topic: April is Heartworm Awareness Month, and it is very important that all of my dog and cat parents are made aware of what heartworms are, because we see them in Texas quite often.
