Travel sick

[*ferrifleboy 19]

Got a pup nearly 4months, been in the car a handful of times, starts slavering and throws up.. When we took him for his jabs the vet told us travel sickness is common with pups.. The windows are open and the cars heater is turned off, I put him in his kennel in the back of the van to see if it was the view out the window making him sick but made no difference.

Anyone been through this and got an idea if and when they grow out of it?

Cheers for reading!

small trips in the car will help

My advice? No food, put him in the car/van and drive for as long as it takes til he doesn't throw up anymore. Then half hour after getting back, take him out again.

Worked with any car sick dog I've ever had.

 

Cheers

Hi pal just sit in the car with him for 5 mins a day just so he gets used to it don't drive any way . And when you go any way let him stick his head out of the window hope this helps atb yeti

Awrite mate.

He`s 8 months now, but was 5 months when I got him,, had never seen a car before, so he grew out of it quite quick.

 

I prefer dogs to be unable to see out of the car,,,saves them fekin around in the back of the motor, but maybe being able to see out the car MAY help with the travel sickness.

 

Just persevere a bit, try the pup before or after feeding, see what works best.

if you can put a cage in your car with some of his bedding in it they don't like shiting on their own bedding
