Depends if it was a 17Hornet or a .22Hornet, both can be quite nasty little buggers.
Sounds like he's ok if he's eating well.

A queen wasp would seem most likely as we get dozens hibernating in our logs. I have found a queen hornet twice, so not impossible (even bigger and more orangy).
I got stung by a queen wasp the other day, from a log, and it did seem more painful than a worker wasp. If a dog chomped it there a chance it killed it before being stung.
How is the dog today?

Evening everyone.
He didnt want breakfast.
A trip to the vet at eleven this morning.
His right side jowls were swollen right up,and it was spreading down his lower jaw toward his throat.
He had a high temperature,vomited bile in the waiting room too.
2ml LA Amoxicyllin
2ml steroids duely injected.
7pm now,he did munch some biscuits,and had a drink.
So ,as predicted by my vet,expect a fairly quick response to the meds,or back to the practice with him.
The silly sod chases every creepy crawly with a passion.

So glad he's back on track.

once you see a hornet any wasp looks small.
