Hi everyone! We'll be getting our puppy in about a month, and it will be a six hour drive home for our little one. Someone told a friend of mine to tell me to bring a bowl because this is a long car ride for a little one who hasn't spent much time in a car and he may get carsick! Is this common?
Also, any other tips for making the car ride home a success? We planned on bringing him home in his crate, but that leads to another question. I heard you want to gradually introduce your puppy to his crate, and you want it to be a positive experience. I would imagine the puppy the will be a bit scared, and if he does get carsick, that's not a positive experience!! Lastly, we planned on lots of breaks, but where is it safe for an 8week old who hasn't had all of his shots, to go potty while on the road?
:shock:
