Answer
Taira -

Giving your pet Benadryl should not be a problem.  If she developed the symptoms you describe, then you should seek help from a veterinarian.  One dose of a Benadryl to a 35lb dog is not usually a big deal.  

Talk with the vet's office to determine if a Benadryl is recommended before you dose her again. You did not state why you were giving her the medicine - was it for allergies?
