The acepromazine is helping our 1 year old pup a lot. She was trembling, crying, running around to different hiding places.

We’ve given her two doses over the past 4 hours. Now she is just stoned and finds comfort quietly following the husband everywhere.

We’d definitely go the Benadryl route If not for the ACE being available. Complete Guide for Administering Benadryl to Dogs

Correct answer.

1mg/lbs every 12 hours

A good rule of thumb is 1 Benadryl capsule per every 20 lbs. of your dog’s weight.

ACE is great if the dog can tolerate it
Our Beagle is walking around very slowly & the Basset / Beagle mix is in a kennel with a blanket over it.
My Boxer is trembling & panting but I can’t give it to her because she gets way too out of it

1 oz every 30 minutes until he dies. Subtract 1 oz and you have your answer. Simple math

Any size can take 25mg without a problem. Larger dogs can take 50mg.

My lab is sprawled on the couch giving zero fricks. We socialized him to loud noises when he was a puppy.
