Some dogs love the car and enjoy riding around with their humans.  Others feel nauseous and stressed.  Make a conscious effort to get your puppy acclimatised to the car.  



You might:

• Feed your puppy in the car so he associates being there with pleasure
• Take frequent – short - journeys to very nice places
• Gradually build up the length of the journey
• Drive slowly, don’t jerk the car around, take bends smoothly
• Keep a window open so he has some fresh air
• If on a long journey, stop often and allow your friend to exercise

Natural remedies for dogs and cars include:

• Ginger which helps to calm the stomach
• Fenugreek, another stomach calmer
• Honey
• Homeopathic combination remedy TCP (Tabacum, Cocculus, Petroleum) in 30c potency
