Sponsor a Heartworm Treatment – Save a Life!

Heartworm treatment is a costly but critical part of saving the lives of shelter dogs. By sponsoring a heartworm-positive dog for just $250, you’ll cover the full cost of diagnostics and treatment—giving that dog a second chance at a healthy, happy life.

Your sponsorship directly offsets the medical costs incurred by the shelter, freeing up vital resources for other animals in need. Whether you’re an adopter or a compassionate member of the community, your medical donation helps us go further, save more lives, and ensure no dog is left behind due to a treatable condition.

In North Carolina and other areas, it’s common for dogs to have heartworms (they are transmitted by mosquito bites). Heartworm disease may cause severe lung disease, heart failure, or other organ damage - resulting in the loss of a beloved pet. With your support, we can continue to improve our treatment protocol and help more dogs with this disease - resulting in healthier, adoptable dogs!

OCAS is grateful for lifesaving donations that sustain critical medical care for shelter pets. Sponsor hope. Sponsor healing. Sponsor a heartworm treatment today.
