Hi all,

we have been enjoying one of many walks down by the River Humber,& East Yorks Coast, I was kicking the ball and sadly Floyd jumped straight into a nettle patch after it, after a little wimper he spent the remainder of his walk rubbing his face and neck along the grass, which I assume as it had dew on it, was to cool his face. Any ideas on how else I can relieve any pain he may still have.

Ps I like the colours in this pic, although Floyds chest bone looks really bony, but I can assure you he eats plenty!

Half a piriton tablet for stings and things - not that I'm an expert but we give our Bulldogs a whole one in this sort of case - never had to give Wilf any, YET!

Thats a lovely photo :thumbsup:

If mine get stung,i just rub a bit of neat lavender oil on & it relieves the stings quickly,but don't put it on too near his nose or eyes.
