Cure For Carsickness

Acupressure can relieve nausea and cheer up the motion-sick dog.

-By Amy Snow and Nancy Zidonis

Catherine took a sweeping, cloverleaf turn onto the interstate, and quickly became thankful that she had thought to bring a travel-crate for Hugo, her new nine-week-old Saint Bernard puppy. She was taking Hugo home for the first time, and Hugo's tummy was not up to the ride - up came his little breakfast. Puppies commonly suffer from motion sickness, but older dogs can have their moments, too.

Contrary to popular belief, not all dogs enjoy riding in the car. Some dogs, like this Doberman-cross pup, turn positively green within moments of the engine starting. Acupressure can make a big difference.
