Herbs for dogs that get car sick

[SarussellStudent]

What herb/s can I give my 7month old puppy so she stops vomiting during car rides?

Thank you

Things like ginger and chamomile might help but the best solution in my opinion is desensitization. The anxiety of being in the car contributes a lot.

Take him out to the car and sit in the driveway with him. Make it a peaceful, boring event. After doing that a few times, start to drive to the corner and back and sit in the driveway for awhile etc… Eventually the dog will think the car is no big deal and settle in.

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
