I am Dani and have been a dog first aid trainer for 6 years. "Mum" to Winnie and Ian who are both Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross with big personalities. I know first hand how important first aid skills for your dog are - having dealt with choking, toxicity and seizures in my own dogs and heat stroke in someone else's. I am on a mission to empower dog owners and people who work with dogs everywhere to reduce suffering and save lives.

We have been through the wars with Ian of late 😢

After an MRI, CT scan and senior blood panel recently he was diagnosed with:

🐾 3 protruding discs in his spine

🐾 Protein Losing Enteropathy (PLE) - more detail to follow

🐾 A tumour on his lung

Yesterday he had 2 seizures. Today he had another. I am sharing this video for education purposes to reinforce what I train on the first aid course.

Unfortunately I didn’t catch the seizure itself as I was hoovering and it was only when I turned the hoover off that I heard him yelping.

This is post ictal; immediately after the seizure.

As you can see he is just pooped.

We have put him on anti-seizure medication and continue to monitor him and work with the lovely Vera and Clara at Dovecote Veterinary Hospital who have been amazing.

In most cases, a bee or wasp sting will cause some mild pain and irritation but will not need any vet treatment.

🐝 WHAT TO DO IF YOUR DOG IS STUNG? 🐝

• Remain calm

• Remove the Stinger (If a Bee Sting): Use a credit card or similar object to gently scrape below the venom sac to prevent further venom release. Do NOT use tweezers or nails, as they can squeeze more venom into the wound. Wasps do not leave stingers behind, so this step only applies to bee stings

• Soothe the area around the bite by bathing it in cool water

• Neutralize the Venom: For bee stings (acidic): Apply bicarbonate of soda dissolved in water. For wasp stings (alkaline): Apply vinegar or lemon juice

• Apply a Cold Compress: Use an ice pack wrapped in a clean tea towel or a bag of frozen vegetables wrapped in a tea towel for 10 minutes. This helps reduce swelling and pain.

• Monitor for reactions: Check for swelling, hives, or signs of discomfort. Keep an eye out for delayed allergic reactions over the next few hours.

🐝 WHEN COULD IT BE MORE DANGEROUS? 🐝
It can be dangerous if your dog has been stung by a bee or wasp in their mouth as the swelling can block their airway and stop them from breathing. Multiple stings can be also be dangerous and some dogs might have an allergic reaction.

🐝 SIGNS YOUR DOG MIGHT BE HAVING AN ALLERGIC REACTION 🐝
• Difficulty breathing
• Swelling of the mouth, throat, eyes or ears
• Vomiting or diarrhoea
• Collapsing
• Weakness
• Drooling
• Having a seizure or fit

If you notice one or more of the signs of an allergic reaction when your dog has been stung, call your vet immediately.
