Car Sickness
by: Marilyn

Mine was the same. Within 5 minutes in the car...sick!
I gave him a childs dose of Gravol (vet will tell you how much, depends on body weight). This worked pretty good. Also try Rescue Remedy, available at most Health Food stores, some pet shops or some vet's. This is good for calmness, which I believe is at the root of the sickness for most anyway.
Good luck!
Front seat
by: Kate's owner

I am a new dog owner of a 2 year old Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mixed. When we adopted her we were told she gets car sick so I researched this on internet. I read if she sits in the front seat she's less likely to be sick. Our short 4 mile trips have all been front seat (a 55 gallon plastic garbage sack goes over my bucket seat to protect it) and she didn't get sick. We took her on a 7 hour car trip in the back seat and she got sick twice. I'll have to try later that same long trip in the front seat and see if it makes a difference. I read that some dogs with exposure to trips will get sick less and less often and other dogs never do. In the meantime we will bring a car sick clean up kit and keep trying. (lots of paper towels, clean up spray, plenty of plastic bags and towels and water.)
