Question
My 11 mo. old boxer was in the back yard tonight and came in with multiple mosquito bites.  Is she o.k.?? What should I do??  She is acting fine.

Answer
Tristin,

Hi, I don't know where you live or what bloodbourne diseases are prominent in your area but yes, chances are, she's fine.  There's not much to do except use hydrocortisone spray or cream if she seems bothered.

There's nothing wrong with putting a call into your vet, though, just to be certain.  Most vets will gladly answer simple questions over the phone.
