ALWAYS have Benadryl on hand in your doggie ER/First Aid kit - that's what you should've given her immediately. I keep both cut up pills of Benadryl and the childrens liquid Benadryl (if I have to force it in). Have the doses written down or memorized.
Do you have a first aid kit? IF not, there is a guide in the ER section. |
Do not rely on memory when your baby is convulsing or unconscious or dying in your arms....write the dose down and RUN to the vet.......it always seems to get worse with each encounter so the next time your baby gets stung by one of these, it could REALLY be bad!
