years ago my german shepard ran through some ground cover and got stung all over. I was there with him so quickly grabed a garden hose and started spraying him with water to get the bees off him. As I ran after him with the hose I fell down a slight incline and tumbled all the way down. didn't know if I should cry or laugh. Any way the dog took off and was lost for three days. Finally found him about five miles away. Had called the vet and asked if he would be in danger from the stings but was told he probably was just scared. He was a dog that someone had tied up to a pole in a parking lot and just left him so we took him in.
