Following up on our NYE trip. I gave Bogey 1/2 pill of Acepromazine about an hour before leaving and hoped for the best since my husband had left the day before. If it didn't worked I'd be driving alone with a crazed Bogey
He did great! I was able to clip him into his car harness and he seemed to enjoy looking out the window. No panting, shaking or terrorized eye bulging. After trying every other treatment I think I've found a solution for him.
