Max Got Stung By a Bee! Max was running around outside and when we came inside he ran to his playpen. I found a bee on his leg and pulled it off! We then pulled out the stinger. He seems ok but he's panting a little bit. I gave him benadryl and iced the area. I emailed my vet and called emergency and they said look for hives, swelling of the eyes, muzzle or difficulty breathing. I'm not seeing any of that. He's lifting his leg and lickin it. He's very still and seems like he's hurting. I'm applying ice. :( |
Aww poor Max! It sounds like you are doing everything you should be. Darned bugs are bad this year, especially horse flies! I'm sure he is still in pain. Hopefully the ice will help relieve the burning (and time.) Keep us posted on how he's doing. |
I made a home remedy of baking soda and water to neutralize the area. He's just laying and his leg is shaking. He won't even chew a bully stick. I think he'll be ok but he's so upset. I've never dealt with a sting before. |
Poor Max!!!! Hopefully the Benadryl and ice will take care of the sting. Bless his heart:( Jada and Bogie send hugs and get well wishes. |
Usually if they are going to have a reaction it happens quickly. If in doubt, take him in. Tell Max that Rhett and Scarlett hopes he feels better soon. |
Awww poor baby! Hope he's ok! |
Thanks everyone. He just stood up but his leg is still shaking. I think he's coming around. He started chewing a bully stick :) The ER is 40 minutes away so I would have gone immediately if i had to. Cooper is getting his shots tomorrow so it looks like this will be a fun Friday:rolleyes: |
Hoping he is okay. Just watch close. |
I'm so glad Max is coming around. Poor little baby! Bee stings hurt! We have a lot of them around our pool this year, along with BATS at night!!! Yes, BATS! I guess all living things are looking for water in this drought! |
I hope Max starts to feel better soon. Princess stepped on a bee last summer & cried for an hour. After that she was just fine so hopefully the worst of it will be over soon. Sending hugs. |
Tibbs got stung by a bee once my dad got the stinger out and I too iced and did 1/2 a benadryl. He was fine in a few hrs! Best of luck! |
Poor Max! My dads dog Lilly got stung last year and she, about 30 minutes later, began swelling up. She could not breathe so we had to rush her to the ER and they fixed her up but it was soooo scary! Sounds like Max will be alright. Poor guy. |
It doesn't seem like he had any reaction to the sting. He's really lethargic and I'm assuming that's from the Benadryl. He's not very bothered by his leg anymore. I think he'll be fine. He's really tough when it comes to medical stuff. |
How scary. Glad he seems to be feeling better now. |
aww poor baby.. I hope he feels better fast. I am glad he is ok |
Max, get better soon and when you do just gimmie a call and we'll show that bee who's the boss! |
Glad to hear Max is okay after being stung. |
Poor baby! But worse yet, POOR MOMMY! Hope you have recovered from the heart attack and worry! |
So sorry to hear about Max!! I can only imagine how scary that was for you. I have been so worried lately about Tessie getting stung because bees seem so much worse this year. I put Benadryl at my parents house, our house, my office, as well as keeping it in my purse. Definitely sending well wishes to Max!! |
Awwww......poor Max:(.......nasty old bee:mad: I hope Max is feeling back to his old self now!! :) |
Hope Max is feeling better. I am scared for my dogs when bees are around, after hearing how severe some reactions can be. Glad it wasn't serious, he will probably be back to kissing on Cooper this morning. |
Oh, poor Max. Those things hurt. :( So happy that he was ok...mom did a good job in the first aid department. :) |
Poor Max. Im glad he didnt have a reaction to the sting. Cricket was stung a few years ago, on her face. No reaction either, just sore, but now shes scared to death of bees and flies. Give Max a big hug from us. |
So glad to hear that Max did not have a more serious reaction. Hope he's feeling all better today. |
I hope Max is doing well this morning. |
Max Is Better The Benadryl knocked him out last night. He fell asleep on my bed rather than go into is crate (which he prefers). At 2am he woke up crying so I was concerned. I finally figured out that Cooper was laying with his squeaky toy:eek: I gave him the squeaky toy and he played in the living room from 2-3am:rolleyes: Last night it was tough to keep him from licking is leg. I put a leg warmer on him and that seemed to work! Thanks for all the concern. I love YT. |
So happy he is back to normal I love how they have us trained. (he wanted his toy) |
Poor Max. I'm glad that he is feeling better and that the darn :bee: is :rip: :D:D |
I was so sad to see this about Max, and I'm relieved that he's doing okay today. I hope Cooper does well at the vet today. These babies always keep things exciting and are a cause of so many worries, but they are so worth it! I hope you can relax more today and enjoy your sweet boys. |
