Why Your Dog Suddenly Hates the Car 🚗

Is your dog suddenly shaking, drooling, or refusing to get into the car? In this episode, Dr. Randy Aronson and his cohost, Olivia Sacci, explore why dogs who once loved car rides suddenly develop car anxiety. From hidden pain like osteoarthritis to "single-event learning" after a scary moment on the road, they break down the most common triggers and how you can help your pet feel safe again using "baby steps" and holistic support.

Whether it’s motion sickness, vision changes like cataracts, or a bad experience at the vet, behavioral regression is vital information. Learn how to identify the root cause of your dog’s car stress and why a physical exam is often the first step toward a solution.Dr. Randy and Olivia also discuss practical tips like using car harnesses, anti-nausea support, and positive reinforcement to rebuild their confidence.
