Your vet can prescribe travel sickness medication. Also, make sure you tire them out before you leave, and only feed and water them a little.

You might be able to get some medication for them from your vit and only your vet don't get off the shelf drugs that's not good. Maybe you can bring some of there favorite toys too, and maybe just maybe you can cover the windows with blankets and blind fold them intill there in the car and maybe they won't even know they are in there. LOL! HOPE I HELPED! PEACE OUT!

How far do you have to travel? And how big are the dogs?
You can use an over the counter anti-sickness medication such as Dramamine, but you'll want to be sure to dose correctly for your dogs' size.
Talk with your vet.

Congratulations, but where are you coming from? I'd say you'd want to move somewhere like Texas or California. There really aren't that many young guys in the military these days.

dont feed them anytime close to when you leave. if you leave in the morning time just feed them a little the night before, that helped with our dogs. also, try not to make any shar turns, that will probably upset their stomachs too. I had some friends before who went to the vet and they were able to get a sedative for their dogs which worked great for them.good luck

Bring plastic bags to let them puke in. You can constantly stop alone the way to let them get sick on the side of the road or at a rest stop too. Good luck.

Grind up some gravol motion sickness pills and mix it in thier dogfood before the trip, they will be sleepy and unlikely to vomit in your car.

Try to relax them before you go and feed the night before you go.And if your afraid that they still might be sick then bring a towel.

Ask a vet. There may be an animal equivalent to dramamine or pepto.
Good luck!

do not feed them or give them water before the trip wait untill you take a stop that will be atleast a few hrs and give them a tiny amount as soon as you stop so they have time to empty their tummys before you leave again
