Any ideas about what is causing this?

I thought everyone who has responded would like to know. The dog is much better tonight. One question, never having used benedryl in this situation before, will I need to repeat the medication? Or does that depend on how she is doing in the morning?

Thanks to all who responded.

My mom's dog is completely back to normal tonight. I wonder if she will be a little more careful in what she investigates now....probably not. I need to keep my note on dosage amounts so that if this happens again I will have some notion of what to do earlier. So it doesn't get as bad.

Again, my thanks to everyone who took time to respond

So glad to hear she's better!

I got a picture of her this morning. As you can see any residue of the swelling is long gone.



Yes, all pictures of her are through a fence or include someone holding on to her. She just gets too excited to remember what sit is.
