My mini dachshund accidentally took a whole 25mg Benadryl. Is he okay?

Question

My M/N mini dachshund weighs 11.56 llbs. I accidentally forgot to split a 25mg Benadryl in half. Should I be worried? Pet's info: Dog | Dachshund miniature | Male | neutered | 1 year and 4 months old | 11.56 lbs

Recommended dosage for Benadryl for dogs is between 2-4 mg/kg. you gave Colt just over 4mg/kg, as toxic doses are only seen with much higher amounts of Benadryl i would not be worried about it in this case.
