Your instincts are right about not feeding her prior to travel. She is still young, and her motion sickness may resolve with time and frequent trips. This is not a guarantee.
Pets that become ill during car travel may respond to some pharmaceuticals. Dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) is an antihistamine used primarily for motion sickness. Acepromazine Maleate has a mild tranquilizing affect and ...
