Dandy's face all swollen!!!

Yesterday afternoon I noticed that Dan's eyelids looked puffy, and by the time I'd finished work they were quite swollen. I gave him a piriton and took him out for a walk but later in the evening his face started swelling again. He had a lump on his muzzle the size of a tennis ball and his eyes were swollen almost shut. I gave him two different antihistimines and one of Rio's steroid pills and it eventually started to calm down. This morning he's fine. I am totally puzzled though - what could cause a reaction like that? Our routine yesterday was the same as always - no new cleaning products at work, no new foods. Any ideas?

God how scary especially when you don't know what was the cause. I have no helpful advice to give sorry just big hugs to gorgeous Dan and let's hope it was just a one off xx

poor Dandy!!!

Perhaps it was a insect bite of some sort. Glad it is better now though.
