Doggy Tip's and Tricks
Motion Sickness
The best thing for motion sickness is ginger - 2
500mg (1000 mgs total) capsules taken every 3 hours,
starting an hour before the trip. If this isn't
enough by itself, 5 charcoal tablets 1.5 hours before
traveling (taken separately from other food or
medications) can help to absorb extra stomach acid.
Stomach Upset
A drop or two of peppermint oil on the tongue can also
soothe an irritated tummy. Also try candied/crystallized
ginger. You can buy it in grocery stores in the spices section.
