looks like hives. Samson got them when he got into got into the baby's rash cream once. Benadryl worked great for him. Might want to still check with the vet though.

Whoa, those are some big honkin hives. Looks more like he has been bit by something. Always keep Benedryl on hand and give him 1mg per lb. Benedryl comes in 25mg tablets soe a 50lb dog would take 2 every 6 hours. If swelling hasnt come down in 6 hours time or moves towards the face, then I would take him into the vet for an steriod shot.
