Doctor Pup: Let me review your history and I will be back
Lisa:My puppy starts drooling ends up vomiting every time she rides in the car.  What can we do?  We have already tried not feeding her before but she still gets sick.
Doctor Pup: How often does she ride and for how long?
Lisa: Once a week for an hour each way.
Doctor Pup: Dramamine is often disappointing. The most reliable product is cerenia which you would need to get through your vet. The nice things are it usually works very well and it does not sedate the dog which then gives an opportunity for the puppy to become accustomed to the ride. Another solution is to take shorter trips more frequently and many dogs get used to it 
Lisa: Ok
Doctor Pup: Anything else I can help with?
Lisa: No, thank you for your response!
Doctor Pup: Anytime
