Ginger Snaps work for carsickness - YorkieTalk.com Forums

jadabug · 04-25-2010, 03:04 PM

My little guy Bogie gets carsick if he rides for more than 20-30 minutes. Every time we take him out for an afternoon drive he throws up at least twice. Today was the first chance I had to try the ginger snaps. I gave him 1/4 of a small one before we left. We drove probably a total of 2 hrs and he didn't throw up once. I am so happy we can go for Sunday afternoon drives without worrying about him getting sick.

I don't remember who posted about ginger snaps , but THANK YOU!!!

DH loves them too. I bought them to have on hand for Bogie and our car rides and I have had to buy them 3 times, Ricky keeps eating them up.

Thats funny maybe you can just take a few & hide them away in a ziplock bag
so DH don't see them

Well I have to go and get some. Max gets so sick I'll try anything and I love them too. Thanks for the post!

Very interesting! Taylor also gets sick, especially if she is not on someone's lap - sometimes it's the short trips that make her the most sick.

Im going to try them too

she loves biscuits

they are just biscuits hey? we get something in South Africa called Ginger Nut Biscuits, same thing???
