I had a couple, would take them for short rides. Mine now seems to only get sick when in the crate. When I'm going short distances and take him I clip him in with a harness and tether made for the truck and he seems to do okay. A little trial and error and a bunch of towels to see what works. But you have to keep taking him/her or they'll never get used to it. I would not have a dog in the car unrestrained for their safety and yours.
