Causes of motion sickness in dogs:

1. Dogs get motion sickness

Dogs usually suffer from motion sickness, but some dogs have severe motion sickness symptoms, and some dogs have mild motion sickness symptoms; in addition, some dogs can quickly adapt to riding in a car, but some dogs may have symptoms of motion sickness. It took me a lot of travel before I got used to riding in a car. Therefore, when the excrement shoveler finds that his dog is motion sick, don't be too nervous.

2. Strange environment anxiety

Most of the causes of motion sickness in dogs are due to the anxiety of dogs in the narrow and unfamiliar environment of the car.

3. Closed noisy environment

For dogs, the car is a relatively closed and noisy environment. For their sensitive hearing, the sound of the engine, tire noise and horn sound are quite loud, and the car windows change the moving images quickly, and the speed is fast and slow. These uncertain factors such as driving speed will make the dog feel nervous and uncomfortable.

4. Car vibration smell

A dog's sense of smell is dozens of times that of a human's. A place like a car with a small space where odors tend to gather can easily make dogs feel uncomfortable. Moreover, the vibration of the car and the smell of engine oil can easily cause motion sickness in dogs.

5. Young dogs

Young dogs are more prone to motion sickness than adult dogs. In fact, motion sickness will not cause much harm to dogs, so owners don't have to worry too much.
