In the dog world, we have what is called a Stay command. I like to call it a Down command. It means pretty much the same thing for dog training except for one important difference. A “down” means laying down in a stay position (until released) where as “stay” just means stop moving forward and sit or stand still until released. For our training purposes here, we want the dog to lay in a down position which he can do several ways other than just laying down, including crawl on his side or back and play dead (which is where I assume you got your question from). He doesn’t have do remain in a lying down position when you tell him “stay”, just not to move forward. The remaining part of your question is dosage. How much liquid benadryl should an adult dog take? If you are using Benadryl as an anti-histamine and you are taking it orally, it says on the box that it is most effective when given in pill form, however if you are administering it by any other method (swallow, topical, etc.) then something like 1 teaspoon of liquid benedryl would be equivalent to 12.5mg of diphenhydramine HCL
How Much Children’s Liquid Benadryl for a Dog?
Benadryl is an antihistamine that helps reduce the symptoms of allergies. It’s also used to treat motion sickness, insomnia, and nausea.
The standard adult dosage of benadryl is 25 mg per pound of body weight, every four to six hours. For example, if you weigh 100 pounds, then you can take up to 50 mg of benadryl every four to six hours.
However, it’s important to note that children’s liquid benadryl has only half the amount of active ingredient compared to regular capsules or tablets. This means that you need twice as much children’s liquid benadryl compared to regular capsules or tablets for the same amount of relief from your symptoms.
For this reason, it is important not to use children’s liquid benadryl if your child weighs less than 20 lbs since there will be too much active ingredient in their body that would result in side effects such as drowsiness or confusion which could lead them into danger (such as wandering off).

The only way that Benadryl will make your dog sleepy or drowsy is if he’s been given a large amount of the medication.

Benadryl is a brand of diphenhydramine, a first-generation antihistamine that has been around since 1962. Many people use it as their go-to allergy medication, but it’s also used for anxiety and sleep disorders. Diphenhydramine is available as an over-the-counter generic drug under several different names (Benadryl, Nytol) or just by itself in different doses (10mg/5mL).
As for dosing your dog: when using diphenhydramine as an antihistamine for allergies or skin problems on dogs with cat dander sensitivity (like short hair breeds), you’ll want to treat them twice daily with 2mg/kg every 12 hours until symptoms subside; then reduce dosage by half until symptoms have completely gone away before discontinuing use completely. If treating itching due to flea bites or other parasites such as lice or ticks with this medication then follow these guidelines: apply 0.25mg per pound every 8 hours until symptoms improve; then reduce dosage by half until symptoms have completely gone away before discontinuing use completely

Dogs can be given Children’s liquid benadryl but need a reduced dose.
The dosage of Children’s liquid benadryl for dogs depends upon the brand you use and whether your pooch is experiencing an allergic reaction. Benadryl comes in two formulations, one with 50 mg per ml (the regular strength) and one with 25 mg per ml (the children’s strength). In either case, your dog should get a quarter of the recommended dose to start with. If there is no improvement after 24 hours, it’s safe to increase this amount until you reach 1mg per pound of body weight. Again, if the symptoms are not going away after 48 hours then it is time for a trip to the vet!
If your pup does have an allergic reaction then give them 1mg every 8 hours until their skin clears up (this usually takes about three days). Once their fur grows back then stop giving them any more medicine until next year when allergy season starts again!
