I tried giving her a 1/4 of a 25mg Benadryl , Aveeno Oatmeal bath. powder.

Its a temporary relief fer her and eventually returns.

I'm seeking any advice on this matter so my girl can have a good night sleep.

I thank you and my Yorkie thanks you
Benedryl really helped Gracie with her itching while we were waiting for the flea effects to subside but we got an awful lot of it on us, the counter and all over Gracie trying to get it into her mouth. She HATES having her face touched. She isn't itching so I don't think it would help her much with the dandruff. Hmm. I tried an oatmeal shampoo for dogs but I didn't think about Aveeno.
