My poor little Yorkie is feeling very sorry for himself. He's just been stung on his paw by a wasp. He is only about 6lbs so I gave him just under a half of an antihistamine. He has stopped shaking now though and sleeping. Paw little thing.
Can't stand wasps!!!

Bathe the area in some vinegar as can help neutralise the sting.

He seems to have settled down a lot now. Still not chasing my other yorkie, but I think he will make up for it tomorrow.
Bertie is the one lying down, he was stung, Milly is looking after him.

Aww, that is sweet smile.
Which paw was it? In that pic his left fore looks swollen but it's probably just camera angle!

It's the camera angle, it's his right rear.

They may look quiet now, but they sure know how to creat havoc.

He's ok now, but wary of the garden.

If he's anything like mine he'll be back out there tomorrow chasing them around, trying to eat them, barking at them and then pawing the things to death. Glad to hear he's ok anyway!
