What solutions are available for dog travel anxiety

There are medications you can get from your vet that help dogs with anxiety due to travel. Unfortunately there are no OTC medications you can give them. You can also get them thunder shirts, which have been reported to help dogs with travel anxiety. Without knowing exactly what type of travel they will be doing (i.e. plane, car), I can't give more specific advice, but I would call your vet today to discuss the use of medications for your dogs, and you can order thunder shirts online. I hope this helps :-)

There are a few different options and I would talk to your vet about which would be the most appropriate for your dogs, their size and their health history. Some of the most commonly used drugs are Benadryl, melatonin, and acepromazine. I hope this helps.
