Chelsie had to get her bordatella booster & heartworm check today. She gets a mild reaction to the bordatella vaccine - lethargy, listlessness, some wheezing & a runny nose. The vaccines always whup her butt. She is not feeling hot at all. I gave her some children's Benadryl a little bit ago and now she is extremely stoned.
The vet said a single child's dose of Benadryl wouldn't help her at all at her weight, but I would rather err on the side of caution - and guess what, doc? A single spoon of children's Benadryl has cleared up the wheezing & runny nose - but her pupils are pinholes & she is randomly waving her paw at various things that only she can see. She should be back to normal tomorrow.
In the meantime, I am letting her lay on my bed w/her chewy.
