My dog has just been stung on the eyelid whilst out walking. I came straight home and telephoned the vet. She advised me to give her a 1/4 tablet of human's Piriton (chlorphenamine) and put a cold compress on the eye. FYI my dog weighs about 5 kilo's. The vet advised if it continued to swell then she may need to be seen, however I can happily report that within 2 hours the swelling has gone completely and my dog is bouncing around.

ANSWER

You can give your canine friend CHILDRENS Benadryl for allergic reactions such as this. I disagree with running your dog to the vet due to a bee sting, but that is my opinion. Call your vet and ask them the Benadryl dosage for your dog.

This is a confusing question. If the dog's one eye is swollen from a bee sting, it's because of the venom that the bee injected. It is possible that if you didn't remove the stinger, assuming it actually was a bee and not a wasp, that it may have become infected. But, for a bee sting to spread to another eye would be unusual. As with any medical question, talk to a vet. Or, wait until the poor thing loses an eye from infection, that's another option. I don't mean to be rude, but while you were typing the question, your dog is sitting their suffering. Good luck. Again take your 4-legged baby to the vet. If you were stung by a bee in the eye and your other eye is starting to have a problem, would you not go to the doctor. Geeesssssh! Take care of these little guys, they're tough, but they can go down rather quickly.

Take it to the vet!!!

Not much. If the dog is well behaved,you can try a honey and papya mix. Apply it to the sting area and leave it be as long as you can.

Take it to the vet. That's what you should do in every situation where you think there is something more than slightly wrong with your animal.
