Puppy and motors....

[u/Avogatosti]

Hi!

I'm picking up my puppy this monday! But sadly my friend with a car cancelled. So I have to go by motor. (i really tried to find a car, and an taxi will be 80+ euros)

It's all 30 km/h through the city and about 20/25 min. Taking the smaller roads.

I covered my cat backpack (its a beagle and will fit easily!) so she can't see too much and to block as much sound as possible.

I am planning on getting her used to the motor so we can go into the mountains to hike. But not until she has all the vaccines and is a bit older.(Legal here in Spain as long as it is a good carrier/backpack)

Does anyone take their dog on the motor? Any advice on how to start training this? And when?

Thank you!

I think there’s a bit of a language/translation issue here! By motor do you mean motorcycle?

In any case, be warned that puppies get motion sick very easy so be prepared you may have a car/motor sick buddy. This is due to their inner ear drums not being fully developed.

Not sure how to counter given you situation but a heads up and possible language clarify. Good luck!

Yes, a motorcycle!

It really is a last resort. I'm gonna go really slow and it will be okay.

Thank you!
