My 6 month old labradoodle became car sick and has continued to vomit off and on since we got home (7 hours ago). I believe it is directly related to becoming car sick, and we are not aware that he has eaten anything he should not have. Are there any OTC medications I can give him to settle his stomach?

Poor Huck! It could be he's vomiting for being car sick but it could also be he has a stomach illness. Unfortunately there are no OTC medications you can give him to settle his stomach, but I can give you a home remedy to see if that helps. Feed him a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If he refuses to eat the bland diet, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!
