I know it got him because of how he screamed. I live 40 min away and by the time I would have gotten down there he would have already shown signs of having an allergic reaction. Isn't the whole purpose of benadryl to help (as quickly as possible) prevent a reaction??? Go figure!!! It all comes down to money. 
So I called the local pharmacist and asked him to tell me how many ML it would be. He told me and Diesel is just fine. I know this isn't always the case but there is always going to be someone out there wanting money. I just don't understand it.
He seems to be ok but he is really upset. He is stuck up my tail and the more I make over him the more he plays the unjured part. I saw him playing ball with Shep and then when I started to babytalk him and love on him he acted as if he was just dying! He also started licking me and just let me cuddle with him. He knew what he was doing. Just like a man,(no offense) they know how to milk it.  That's ok.. I don't mind loving on him.  |
So really, he wasn't milking it.... He was really giving you what YOU wanted - the chance to baby and love on him!! Hey, they know us....
