“wanna go for a riiiide?”

A common question that Andrew and I got leading up to our trip was, “How are the dogs going to do?” Jethro and Eli LOVE car rides, all you have to do is ask, “Do you wanna go for a riiiide?” for them start running around in circles until you open the door. Plus they have had a lot of practice since at least once a year we made the trip from South Carolina to Ohio (658 miles/10 hours), but the truth is we weren’t sure how they would do driving back to back days. We have often given them Dramamine during our trips to Ohio, but we felt uneasy about “drugging” them for 12 straight days. We started searching for a natural remedy as an alternative to the Dramamine.

My older sister, Stephanie and I were at SouthPark Mall in Strongsville, Ohio and we visited Moochie & Co when I found a natural stress relief for pets, Rescue Remedy. Let me tell you, this product is amazing! All you have to do is add one dose (4 drops) into their food, water, or on a treat – the drops can also be rubbed on topical. The best yet is that the dosage does not depend on weight but on the stress of the animal. Unlike theDramaminee, Rescue Remedy does not cause the dogs to be lethargic. We are planning on using this stress reliever as we transition Jethro and Eli into our new home in Anchorage.
