Many dogs and puppies get car sick. Some so much they start
drooling as soon as they get in the car, or even refuse to get in. Most car
sickness is physiological and it is not hard to see why.
The first few times a dog rides in a car are usually negative experiences. They are taken to the vet for a needle, being taken away from mother and litter maters, back to the vet, more needles and so on. Easy to see why they could learn not to like, even fear riding in a car. A negative pattern has been learned. The best way to break this pattern is with fun rides in the car, Short little rides to a park or a quick drive around the block before dinner or a walk. Even just getting in the car, starting it then getting out, show the dog there is nothing to fear, it is normal and you are in control.
