My shaffer outgrew being car sick after about a year. Vet suggested daily car ride for ten minutes, so everyday we went in the car, he had a car seat he could look out not sure that helped but safety first. This may sound odd but the vet told me always tell him where we were going and how long we were going to be in the car, at first he never got sick to the groomers, it was about a 20 min ride, he often got sick on longer rides to our beach house, but after about a year and a daily car ride he didn't get sick anymore. I took him in the car often so I was very happy. He was always a nervous dog never loved the car like my other two but he didn't hate it or get sick anymore. Maybe you could try Rescue remedy. I never used for car rides but did use when I first got Cooper he lived in a cage for two years before I rescued him, it seems to calm him down a bit. |
