Go Back to Bulldog Medical Health

Hi, my 14wk puppy has went for a walk in the feilds and has gotten some nettle stings on his feet. He won't stop scratching and biting his feet. How can I cure this?! Please help.

Thanks,

Do you have any plain benadryl? If so, I would start with that.

The dosage is 1mg per lb. The pills are 25mg. I might also try a cool bath, that might give a little relief.

We tried the cool bath and that seemed to do the trick. :-)

I remember getting into them as a kid, not fun.
