I'm not certain but I think the only way a dog can get heartworm is by being bitten by an infected mosquito. So the answer to your question is no but it is still wise to give your dog worming tablets which include heartworm such as advanticks. Hope this helped :D

∙ 14y agoDogs can not get heartworms directly from another dog. A mosquito must bite an infected dog first and then bite another dog in order to spread heartworms.

Can dogs catch heartworms from a cat?
Caused by Dirofilara immitis, heartworms are a potentially fatal parasitic worm living in the pulmonary arteries, lungs & hearts of cats. Heartworms are nematodes, a type of roundworm, they are several inches long, thin & white. Heartworms are a common parasite in dogs, although cats do become infected & may develop disease. While cats are more resistant to heartworm infestations than dogs, cats in particular are extremely vulnerable to heartworm & even a small number can lead to death. The disease is spread from mosquito to animals when the mosquito feeds from it's host. This is known as vector borne.
