if that doesn't work.. then i'll go to emergency vet.. if he's okay by then i'll take him tomorrow morning.
i refuse to take him out of my sight for the night.
am i being too overbearing or anything? i'm just scared.. =[ |
No, you are just being a concerned owner and you should be.

Benadryl is fine and if the leg is normal by morning I don't even think you have to go to the vet. Maybe just call? The problem with swelling is that swelling can happen inside (throat closure), so just watch. Make sure his gums are nice and pink and if they aren't, take him in immediately.
