My chocolate lab/retriever mix, Rylie, has had kennel cough since June 1st and is on two antibiotics (Doxycycline and Amoxicillin). Can she be outside with one other dog, considering I'm a human nurse and understand that once on antibiotics, one is usually not contagious?

My dog's left ear is bothering him. He keeps shaking his head and scratching at his ear, which seems swollen on the inside. I clean his ear regularly, but it remains waxy. Can I give him children's Benadryl, and is there anything else I should do to help him?
