Miss Alva Puffy Face

Oh No! Say it ain’t so!! My beautiful baby dog (Miss Alva to you) got bit by something nasty last night. This morning I woke to see her covered in hives and with a face about double the fatness of normal. Thankfully our vet was able to see her right away and with a couple of quick shots she was treated. She is definitely looking better 15 hours later, but still not back to normal. I had to administer some more Prednisone about two hours ago, so hopefully by morning she will be back to her normal self. Oh, poor Alva Dog!
Poor boo dog!!!
I hope she is better soon.
Hey i was just wondering what exactly your dog was bitten by or if you at least know what species it was. My dog is going through the same thing right now and i’m worried. And was the Prednisone the only shot administered to her, if not then what else (if known)??
Thanks,

Hi Michele,
My guess is that the dog either got bitten by a spider or a bee/wasp/yellowjacket of some sort. We were never able to confirm what did bite her.
There may have been another shot (other than Prednisone) but I cannot remember now. Thanks for your comment!
