Anybody ever had this happen to their dog or know what's going on with my dog?:( any advice would be greatly appreciated! Best Answer - Chosen by Voters Hi My little dachshund had a similar thing (only not as bad as what this sounds). We let her out for the toilet and when she came back in I noticed blood running down her face. I was terrified. We obviously picked her up, comforted her and dressed the wound. It was late at night and so I thought that she'd just caught the side of her head on something. It seemed like just a small cut. But by morning it had swelled up. So I took her straight to the vet. They never worked out what had actually happened to her but the likely cause was a sting from a wasp or bee. They gave her painkillers because it was very VERY sore and a lampshade collar and within a few days it filled with fluid and burst. It took quite a while to heal and has left a scar where the fur never grew back. But its possible your dog is suffering from an allergic reaction to the sting. There's nothing you can really put on
