speaking of dogs, Mae was on her walk with twice a week neighbor dog walker (now called in this post DW) today and she stepped on a bee. the dog not the DW

According to dog walker poor Mae yelped, lay down began licking the paw. DW then wonders "how'm I going to get this dog home? She's too heavy to lift".

Mae must have licked the stinger out. I am very proud of her, at one point an elderly man came up and offered to hold the leash. Mae let DW examine the paw while elderly stranger guy held the leash. Gave DW a lick on the face at this point.

Then they slowly, with some breaks (kinda like Bikerz, dachsund and me on the Hotter-then-Hell 40 on Sunday) came home. DW called me nothing I can do till I get home but she applied ice.

I've been watching her, no reactions to the sting, Mae seems fine now.
