She thinks that as long as her breathing is normal and there is no swelling, you can wait to take her to the vet tomorrow or try a phone call to him tomorrow.

She doesn't like giving dogs benedryl although she knows other vets do. She suggests something to distract the dog from scratching - something else to chew on, water spray from a bottle which will also cool her.

But she wants me to be sure to tell you she can't be certain without having seen Kayla.

Thank you so much for coming back and for talking to Deb! I REALLY appreciate it. Ok, I'll skip the Benadryl and try to wait till morning when I have appointment scheduled. I'm so afraid of losing her... they can go so fast when something is wrong...
