Default Rides in the Car.........

Hello everyone, I have been gone for a while! Hope all you Yorkie lovers out there are doing well, and likewise for your doggies..... My gabby is doing great. My husband has said that I love the dog more than him! (well, uh,,,lol)

Question: I'm trying to get gabby used to riding in the car. I have never had an animal that gets sick in the car like she does... Profusely slobbers, then generally throws up after about 10 minutes in the car. I withhold food for several hours before knowing we are going to take her with us, etc. I know the vet offers a pill, which I haven't tried, but trying to possibly try any alternatives? She seems to love going, but I feel bad because she gets so ill. Anyone have this trouble? Any suggestions????? I was told the more you take them in a car, they will get used to it? Well, not sure about that, because we take her at least 1 or 2 times a week, for short little drives...

I'm bummed because she's going on vacation with us in 4 weeks and that's a 6 hour drive!!!!!!!

Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!
