Is this something you can get over the counter or wait for the vet to open

I'm with haak. I had a 3 month old pup get bit and it's head swelled up like crazy. I gave 1/2 pill benidryll till the swelling went away. With a small amount of penicillin. Pup turned out just fine. Water is very important too, might have to get a big sureng* and give it water that way. Dehydration will only make the symptoms worse and make the pup feel worse. Good luck and hope the pup recovers quick

He looks like he feels bad but that benidryll will ease the pain a lot! He should be good to go in no time
