Car Sickness

Drooling, shaking, panting, vomiting... sound familiar?

Behaviorists believe that almost all car sickness in dogs is caused by fear, so to overcome this problem, you will need to slowly teach your dog not to be afraid of the car. 

Be sure not to feed your dog before car rides. Avoid taking your dog for trips that are longer than he can tolerate while you are teaching him not to be afraid.

We have aids that help him to be calm can make the process go a little quicker.
