I am very glad that Maxx is OK. I have been through that same problem with several of my Boxers. I always carry Benedryl with me. It is always important to keep an eye out for Bees, Wasps, and Hornets. Spiders can also cause problems. The best thing to do is ask your vet what to do if you dog is stung or bitten while on the way to the vet,
