3. Sounds like a spider bite. Hope it worked out okay
Years ago, our dog was bit by a brown recluse spider. His head swelled to nearly twice the size and he was drooling. Of course it was a Saturday night and we had to take him to the emergency vet clinic. He was nearly completely better by the time we got there. The first question the vet asked was "Did you recently get a load of firewood delivered?" and yes we had, just the day before.

It was scary, but our dog Ranger returned to normal without any treatment.
