this is probably not going to happen to all dogs, but i think just to be safe, i wouldn't walk my dog or let them play outside if there are bees around.
So glad that kiddo is okay, wow, scary! Hopefully, their Vet told them (after looking at vital signs) afterward whether or not this was a *true* allergic response? Bc if the vet thinks the dog was on her way toward anaphylactic shock, I'd want something more than Benadryl in my "doggie kit". I'd want Epi on hand at all times.
