My mini schnauzer, Stella, has hives after going to the groomer. She's been scratching and licking since we got home. She also had a minor incident with a mouse yesterday but was fine this morning. Can I give her Benadryl, and what should I do about her hives?

My dog, Paws, a 5-year-old Chihuahua Dachshund mix, was up early this morning whining and wouldn’t get up to walk. He just plopped back on his hind legs, and his tail is limp. He lets me move his legs but whines when I move his back right leg. His tail is limp, and he did pee and poop this morning. What could be wrong, and what should I do?
