going out on my bro-in-laws boat. I want to bring my Yorkie, but don't want her to get sick.

A combination of fear and not understanding what is happening will cause drooling, shaking, or even vomiting in some dogs and cats. True motion sickness is a result of an inner ear problem. Some dogs truly do have motion sickness, and for these animals products such as Dramamine can be used under the supervision of a veterinarian. For most dogs, however, the sickness is strictly an over-reaction to the fear and apprehension of the boat noise, motion, etc. Ginger treats might help for motion sickness too!

Your not going to know until you take her on the boat. My chihuahua does not get sick on our boat BUT he's gotten sick swinging on one of those patio swings sitting next to me...Go figure???
