When I adopted my dog she was known to up chuck in a car. In fact she did on the way home in the back seat. Not knowing what to do I started putting her in the passenger seat whenever I went someplace so I could reach over and lay a hand on her. I do not think she ever got sick in the front seat. Within a week she was moving into the back seat on her own and not getting sick.
I always have her in the front seat. I even got one of those high up seats that attach to the head rest so she can see out if she wants. Nothing works. She has been known to upchuck in less than a mile....and her groomer is 4 miles away....we never make it there and back :(. Our German Shepherd used to get carsick, but we would drive her a mile to Starbucks and then back every day. Then we increased it. Eventually she got to where she can ride the entire day without any issues - in fact, she LOVES to ride with us. BUT she is 10 1/2 years old now and her hips are starting to give her problems.
