Black and White Sunday - Zaphod



Zaphod went to the vet on Thursday.
He threw up 4 times in the car. the vet says if he is car sick now, he will likely be car sick for his whole life. He gave us a sample of an expensive med ($30 a pill) to try.
Our Phod is also 60 lbs, which I think is small for a Shepherd.
He didn't love the vet but did well.

Happy Sunday!

  2. We looked on-line if there was anything that could help, and these three websites seemed to offer some good suggestions. Ginger cookies seem to be an effective preventative... :D

  3. Ooooo car sick sucks. I only got car sick once but that was because I was already sick. But I do get to ride up front. Maybe that makes a difference. Hope a less expensive solution can be found.

  7. Oh shoots! Maybe just very short rides(like around the block) then increasing if Phod can handle it. Good luck.

  10. Sorry to see Phod got sick in the car. The pill is seriously expensive. But I hope this pill, or something helps him from getting sick.
