Daisy's always gettin stung by somethin

Poor little Daisy got stung/bit by something AGAIN this weekend. I think she needs to watch a little better where she puts her paws because this is the second time this has happened. Luckily, this time around I was better equipped to handle the crisis. We were all the way on the other side of the complex when I noticed her biting her paw and I knew it was just a matter of time before she started wailing. Sure enough, I got over to her and she held her paw and started to squeal. I picked her up and comforted her as I hurried home. I gave her Benadryl right away and about 20 minutes later her paw was twice the size as the other. It took about 45 minutes before she started getting sleepy and the swelling went down a bit. She was back to her usual shenanigans about an hour or two later. Poor Daisy and thank goodness for Benadryl.
