Oh no! Please keep us updated.
Bethany please watch her.....did you call the ER doctor?
Lily was stung in the eye by a wasp & her poor face blew up in seconds, we were very lucky that her vet was opened, steroids & Benydryl for her with that vet trip. She was running to come into the house & ran right into a wasp. Please keep us posted.
I couldn't get through earlier between 5 and 6, when the swelling was getting worse. It was getting worse slowly, but it was obviously getting worse. Since I couldn't get a hold of the vet, I called my friend who has 4 dogs and whose DD is the one at LSU Vet School - the ones I got Anabelle from. She said I could give her liquid Children's Benadryl and how much to give her. I gave her that and the swelling has gone down considerably. I can give another dose 6 hours apart, and I'll call the vet in the morning.
She is acting her usual feisty self now; I'm still keeping an eye on her but I'm much less worried about her. For awhile I was worried she would have trouble breathing....which is why I had her on my lap - to feel her breathing.
On a different topic...you foodies will be so proud of me. I was watching an show on tv where they were interviewing Ralph Brennan.
