Took the words right out of my mouth, Ann.

Your Vet should be able to tell you the dosage amount for your dogs weight. Since I have 3 dogs, all 3 lbs apart in weight, I have their names and their dosage amount written on the outside of the Benedryl box.

If your dog gets stung, administer the Benedryl and call your Vet. They will give you further guidance or at least tell you what to watch for. Some dogs don't respond to the Benedryl and still swell, which is serious. They will need to be taken to the Vet or Emergency Vet ASAP.

Hope that helps!
