I have a 100lb lab that is suffering from all this pollen- red watery eyes, sneezing. I've heard you can give dogs Benedryl? Petco sells some allergy meds for dogs-Excel Allergy Relief Tablets- anyone tried these?

I give my lab benedryl. Call your vet and have them tell you how much for the weight of your dog...

Haven't tried them, but 1 .25mg of Benedryl per 25lbs, that is what we give our Lab and she is 89lbs. Make sure she dosen't have inflamed ears, and is she licking her paws all the time? If so, you can get medicated wipes from the vet or Petco? It will help with the flare ups. Hope this helped, we have been fighting them for 4 years.
 
call your vet they will give the best advice since they know your dog. if the benedryl doesn't work they may give you a prescription allergy medicine. good luck!!

Okay, I'll call my vet then and see how much they say to give her. Her ears look fine and I haven't noticed her licking her paws often however I will keep an eye out for that. Thanks to all :smile:
