    Do you take them with you places frequently or just when they have to go to the vet, etc? Do you buckle them up or do they simply sit in their seat (or hang out the window)?

    My dog LOVES car rides, unfortunately do do his fear aggression I can't take him too many places withme. It's a shame because in many ways he would be the perfect dog to bring along on quick outings. I don't buckle him in but he just lays on the seat next to me.

    My dog Dizzi get super car sick and when I was moving from Georgia to Texas I had to give her a small sleeping pill from the doctor. My dog Onyx loves to ride in the car but, he likes to jump around from front seat to back seat..

    My mom's dog is so well behaved and would love to go visit my sister at college but she gets horribly car sick :( We tried getting a medecine for her but it actually seemed to make it worse.

    One of my dogs gets very anxious in the car, and the other tends to get carsick. So that means car rides only when necessary. I also hate cleaning out the car when they've been in it.

    Our recent dog used to be a stray puppy in our community and we just decided to adopt him when we are sure no one owns him. He usually just inside our compound and we could observe that he was afraid to go out of the gate when we tries to bring him outside (maybe he thinks he will be thrown away again LOL). And so he never ride any vehicle yet and I think he was also afraid of that.;)
