Hi Beverly…Dogs can suffer from car sickness for a number of reasons. Most obvious is that the movement and momentum of the car makes them feel unwell, similar to what humans may experience, or they can view the car journey as anxiety inducing and that can lead to vomiting. A few things that may help if the sickness is caused by the first factor…..try having your dog travel in a covered crate or tethered in the mid section of the car as it’s less bouncy. Also having your dog travel on the floor of the car, where they can’t see out the windows may help. Avoid feeding your dog just before you go on a car trip, this tip alone can solve the issue quite quickly. Try practicing really short trips in your car to help your dog get used to the movement of the car but without them getting to the point where they feel ill. Some people also swear by giving their dogs ginger but I have not tried this personally.
If the cause of your dog’s car sickness is the second factor then my website TheOnlineDogTrainer.com has some resources that will be helpful…maybe take a quick look…its a $1USD trial for 3 days…all the best Doggy Dan

Hi Bill, Everyday objects like bicycles or scooters can be things that some dogs find unsettling and their behaviour towards those things can become a little problematic. Having good recall when a dog is off-leash is really important for their safety, but it’s also something that can be achieved with a little practice and patience. We have a really great section about mastering recall on my website TheOnlineDogTrainer.com …maybe take a quick look…its a $1USD trial for 3 days…all the best Doggy Dan

We take her daily to an off-leash park. Today she chased a bicycle and almost got kicked. She doesn’t react while on leash anymore. So what can we do?
Thank you,
Aikens
