Well.......drat! There are other antihistamines out there that might work better. Hydroxyzine used to knock out Mac for hours on the lowest dose for his size, which is why we stopped giving it to him, but it was VERY effective as a tranq, LOL.
You can try giving him a dose ahead of time (if you can get more from your vet), but try to be home if you do that just in case he has a reaction to it. You'll need to get him to the vet immediately if he does react poorly.
