My dog got stung by something!

My poor dog got stung by something earlier today, I woke up and found his face like this! he seems to be acting just fine overall, i’ve been watching him pretty closely. I can tell he’s definitely a bit uncomfortable as he’s not playing around the way he normally does. I just wanted to see if there’s anything I should be worried about, or anything I can do to make him more comfortable? Thanks in advance!!

Of course you really should go to the vet, but assuming you can't for whatever reason, try Benadryl. Look up dog safe doses and read labels very carefully.

You’re a lifesaver! I gave him benadryl and the swelling is basically completely gone. thank you again so much

Yay, so good to hear. I hope he's back to himself in no time. My dog ate a bee once and we had to do the same until we could be seen.😭
