The end stages of heartworms in dogs, known as severe heartworm disease, occur when a large number of adult heartworms reside in the heart, lungs, and associated blood vessels. This can lead to significant cardiovascular damage, pulmonary hypertension, and organ failure. Symptoms may include severe coughing, difficulty breathing, lethargy, weight loss, and fluid accumulation in the abdomen. Without prompt treatment, end-stage heartworm disease can be fatal.

Why is your dog dragging her rear end on the carpet?

One reason may be that the dog has worms. They itch and the dog drags his/her rear to scratch the itch. My dog does this even though she doesn't have worms. (I know she doesn't because she was given a wormer recently.) I wonder if she does it just to wipe herself or scratch herself. Not sure if there are other reasons besides worms. Anyone else?
