Is Children's Benadryl safe for my several-month-old Pomeranian puppy?

Question

I was wondering if it is alright to give Children's Benadryl to my several month old Pomeranian. Pet's info: Dog | Pomeranian | Female | unspayed | 7 months and 8 days old | 3 lbs

No, I would not give this to Lexi. It's never recommended to self treat your dog, as you may accidentally do harm to them. In addition, it may not be safe to give to her based on her health status. Finally, it may not be the appropriate drug for her symptoms. Because the experts at Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach cannot see Lexi in person, it is illegal for us to say if a drug is safe to give to her or not. I recommend giving your vet a call to see if they feel it's safe to give her Benadryl. They can give you the correct dose if they feel it's safe.
