What do you do if your dog gets stung by a hornet?

Answer 1

If your dog is acting normal afterwards, everything should be fine. My dog has eaten many wasps in her days. Otherwise, just make sure your dog drinks plenty of water to keep her system clean.

Answer 2

I would grab my first aid kit (keep one in my purse at all times) and use the homeopathic remedy Apis 30C and use Australian Bush Flower Essences Emergency Essence as well to help with the pain and inflammation

Answer 3

Put some bicarbonate of soda paste on the sting site. If the dog seems to be in distress contact a vet.

Don't give the dog medicines intended for humans because firstly you don't know what effect they may have on the dog, and secondly you wouldn't know what dose to give. The correct dose for a human would amost certainly be an overdose for a dog.

Answer 4

Your dog will probably be licking the area where it has been stung where there is a small lump. Your dog might yelp or whine when the wasp has stunged him/her. You can use that wasp sting stuff you can get for humans and use them for the dog too if you really want.

Answer 5

Usually the face is swollen you should take your dog to the vet immanently and the vet will give you dog a injection and in 2 to 4 hours it should be ok after the dog may be very itchy.

Answer 6

Take him to a vet.
