Topic: How much Benadryl to keep a dog quiet during fireworks?

Anonymous A started this discussion 9 years ago #63,733

Say 60 pound dog. How much is safe? He'd bark a lot otherwise.

Do not give your dog Benadryl. Jesus.

Not a lot, obviously. Just enough so I can sleep. I work tomorrow. Are you going to give helpful advice or not?

Depends on the size of the dog, but I'd consult your vet and try to get a script of xanax for it when it starts spazzing out, as suggested above. Alternatively valerian root works okay. We give a large dog about 500mg in a slice of cheese during thunderstorms, fireworks, etc.
