DeeDee gets car sick too...she even got sick with an empty stomach!!! I haven't tested her recently, so I don't know if she still does. Our vet said that a lot of times dogs grow out of it. When I was younger, we had a Weimaraner who got car sick on our 600 mile trip to Wisconsin and we drugged her up so she walked like she had been on a 4 day drunk. After a few years of this, we decided to try her with no meds and she was fine and was fine every year after that, so there must be something to the growing out of it theory.
I sure do hope she can out grow it. I will love her just the same, but I LOOOOVE taking my dogs with me everywhere, and I dread having to leave her home all the time.

I do take her to the dog park, and I give her motion sickness homeopathic tabs before every trip. As long as she has an empty stomach and I drive REAALLLLLLYYYY slow she usually makes it to the dog park without tossing her cookies all over my car The vet told me to give her dramamine (sp?) and give her a childs' dossage. That is fine for trips that I want her knocked out cold for, but I hate to drug her, so I have not yet bought any.

On the way to the vet to get her rear dew claws removed on Wednesday morning she puked three times in one block, and she had an empty stomach so she puked yellow foamy stuff I am hoping that after discovering that she has (had) tapeworms, her stomach will be more stable

I guess we'll just have to see
