Our French Bulldog is Allergic to Bees
Our Frenchie Tink was playing at her favorite park one Saturday afternoon when she saw a little bee crossing her path. Tink thought it would be fun to chase this bee and when she finally caught it boy was she in for a surprise. On the ride home from the park James and I noticed her chin was a little red, we had tried to stop her from chasing the bee but we were too late and poor little Tink got stung on the mouth. When we got out of the car to go up to our place Tink started throwing up. When we got in the house she reverted to a corner of the house as if she was embarrassed by her appearance and five minutes later Tink was covered in bumps.
This picture is 5 minutes after we got home.
This is Tinks bottom-side 2 minutes later.
This is Thinks face again only another 2 minutes later.
Apparently our french bulldog had an allergic reaction to the bee sting. We immediately called the vet and they instructed us to give her Benadryl and track her progress. She would hardly eat anything but we somehow managed to stuff some pills down her throat. 20 minutes later, our little french bulldog pup was back to normal and had no more signs of bumps. It was the scariest 30 minutes of ours lives.
At this point we are strongly considering pet health insurance.
