Best Answer

Dogs are susceptible to stings from flying insects just as humans are. A dog that is allergic to a sting can experience anaphylactic shock if not treated quickly. Signs of anaphylactic shock can include swelling around the sting area, vomiting, wheezing or breathing very quickly, pale gums, and the dog will appear very weak.

Professionals recommend Benadryl in a very small dose can help your dog until you can get it to the emergency room. Remember your dog can overdose on Benadryl, so do not administer a dose as large as you would take. It would be best to get your dog to a veterinarian as soon as possible if they experience an allergic reaction to an insect sting.
