For car owners, it is very convenient to go out to play. If they are interested, they will take their dogs out to play together. But the problem is that some dogs have never been in a car, so motion sickness will happen. Therefore, we need to know how to train dogs not to get carsick, so as not to spoil their fun by not going out to play together.

1. Before walking your dog every day, practice in a car that doesn't start. Let the dog sit in the co-pilot, while you are in the driver's seat. Give him something delicious and talk to him. After training, take him outside to play, and let him associate the car with playing. Training lasts for a week, about five times, each time lasting 20 minutes.

2. Do it in a car that starts but stops in place, then drive slowly for a distance and stop at a busy street to let the dog get used to the noise in the street.

3. Gradually lengthen the driving time and mileage, so that dogs can slowly adapt to the environment inside the car, which can effectively prevent them from motion sickness.

Here, we should pay attention to forcing it to get on the bus at the beginning, and it will get on itself after several times. During the process, the dog will definitely vomit several times. Once it vomits, stop immediately to comfort and never lose his temper. There will be repetitions in the progress, so don't worry. The most important thing is to tie it to a place where it can't climb on the driver, and pay attention to safety. Drive slowly, slow down when turning, and keep the ventilation inside the car.

Through the above training, I believe that dogs will be able to get rid of carsickness after a period of time, so that you can take your dog to the place you want to go. During training, you must pay attention to taking your time and not acting too hastily, so as not to have the opposite effect.
