The formula for figuring out the dosage for Childrens Liquid Benedry is:
Your dogs body weight times 5 divided by 12.5 = dose in cc/ml
To figure out your dogs body weight you have to convert ounces to pounds...
EX: a dog that weighs 4 pounds 10 ounces would weigh 4.625 pounds
you must take the 10 ounces and divide by 16 then add the 4 pounds...
10 divided by 16 = .625 + 4 =4.625
4.625 X 5 divided by 12.5 =1.85 cc/ml
Benadryl could work if it's environmental allergies (use for "at least" 7-10 days before deciding if it is working. The paw itching could indicate an allergy, but with her back/by her tail bothering her, I'd wonder about some other things too. You might want to have her checked for mites, and that is one of the places that fleas like to hang out. Does Advantage work in your area?
