Actually it is safe in the right doses...Dogs and cats can be given 1-2 mg/lb every eight hours. This can be used to treat allergic reactions, and it also has some anti-anxiety and anti-vertigo effects. As a general rule, it is pretty safe stuff. The primary side effect is drowsiness.. Always check with your Vet.. I got this info off of a Vet site.

That depends entirely on how much benadryl your puppy ingested and how large your puppy is. An appropriate does of benadryl should not be harmful to your puppy, and is often prescribed by veternarians to ease Allergies in dogs. To know for sure whether or not your puppy will be okay, contact your vet as soon as possible.

Benadryl is safe to be given for dogs, but as any other medicine it can interact with other drugs. Benadryl stops itching, controls vomiting, is good for motion sickness and can be used as a mild tranquilizer.
