Try not to feed him much before the trip. It might be better if he can see out of the window and don't let him hide under a blanket, that just makes it worse. The best cure for motion sickness is to stop moving. So if you notice that he's getting sick, stop for a little while if you can and let him get his "land legs" before you start out again. Can you plan on 3 hrs for the trip with some 15 min stops worked in there somewhere? That might make the trip easier on him. I had a yorkie mix that would vomit and have loose poops on long trips. Yucky.
My daughter has asthma and she is allergic to all dogs and cats. Her dog allergy is not to the dander or hair it's to their saliva. She comes to our home and has to use her Singulair first then she's ok. Yorkies, like Maltese and other breeds, are hypoallergenic as to the fact that there's no dander/undercoat and their coat is the texture of hair not fur.
I hope some of this works for you, let us know how it goes. |
