We recently took in a new rescue. She was just spayed earlier that week and the rescue/foster parents gave us 2 bottle of meds. Presumably for post-surgery recovery. About a month later we took her to our vet and she was diagnosed with heartworms. We also found out 1 of the meds we were given was a heartworm treatment. Our vet called the other vet and confirmed she was diagnosed before we took possession of her.
We were never told of her condition and when we asked we were told "she's been tested". We are pissed that we were never told and also that they could have put her life in danger if we didn't get her checked up in time.
We're big proponents of rescues and know that they operate on shoestring budgets but feel that they're somewhat responsible, morally and financially, for letting us know her condition.
