I wanted to get some Benadryl tablets for my dog for itching but there are many formulas. Which Benadryl should I get? Thanks.

I bought her from a respectable breeder when she was six months old and weighed 22 pounds. She was big for her breed and people thought she was a Tibetan terrier.. She always had...
