I don't know about vomiting several hours after the car ride. I adopted my boy 19 months ago, he was then 2 1/2 y/o. The day I bought him home he got sick in the car. The day after I bought him home he had to go to the vet, he threw up going there and coming home. I had NOT fed him before the car trip, a tip given me from a past vet for a past pup. My vet gave me pills to give an hour before he goes in the car, I hate giving a dog a pill just for car rides, and I am spur of the moment hop in car for what ever, I had always taken my dogs with me, even if it was only a 10 minute ride. I was not a happy camper knowing the only way I could take my baby in the car was to give him a pill.Then I read here on YT about booster seats, off I went to pet supplies, I purchased the below Name of booster seat at Pet supplies….Tagalong Pet Booster Seat…large size holds up to 18 Lb dog. Basket dimensions: 16” W x 14”D x 8” H. Cody is 12 lbs, I got the larger one so he can lay down and nap.The seat is elevated OFF the passenger seat. That was 14 months ago, he has NEVER gotten car sick since I got him this booster seat. He now LOVES going for car rides. I can feed him and 15 minutes later hop in the car and he is just fine. If you are not using a booster seat I suggest getting one. Good luck
