Another vet visit

My husband abruptly said "Cinnamon looks like a chow-chow", when we were cutting up branches of a pittosporum we had pruned recently. Turning my head to see Cinnamon who was sitting behind me, I was astonished to find her looking realy like a chow-chow. Both her eye lids swollen, I couldn't see her usually cute round eyes.

I quickly examined her and rang her vet to make an appointment for her. The vet said "It is most likely a bee bite. Good news is her breathing and heartbeat are normal. I will give her a couple of injections, antihistamine and anti-inflammatory. The swelling should subside overnight."

This photo was taken after the vet visit. The swelling was already a little better than it was when we first saw it, but, still, she looks like a chow-chow, doesn't she?
