Whether you and your cats are driving across town or you’re taking the dog on a much-needed road-trip vacation—he works hard!—hitting the road with your pet can be a joy or an ordeal, depending on how prepared you are. Animals in a car can get stressed, which then puts stress on you and your passengers. And pets can easily sustain injuries in a crash, even a fender bender, unless you have the right gear to protect them.

Calming aid for dogs

Not all dogs take well to being cooped up in a moving car. And some can get pretty stressed out, which can lead to panting, barking, salivating, and even vomiting, which can ruin everybody’s trip. Something that can help is Ceva Animal Health’s Adaptil, the only calming aid that behaviorists we interviewed recommended. (Its efficacy has been demonstrated in a number of studies, too, though as with any such aid your mileage may vary. Be sure to consult your vet with questions.) It’s also the easiest to use, as it doesn’t require you to calculate a dose; other calming aids, such as Bach Rescue Remedy, do have dosing recommendations. Plus, some products have a medicinal smell that can turn off dogs, while Adaptil doesn’t smell like much of anything. As Lori Kirby at the Oregon Humane Society said to us, “You can’t screw Adaptil up.”

I know, maybe some of you got negative thoughts against the product, but I think a few drops once a year doesn’t hurt, and you all will have a safe and calm trip!
