| Weird Behavior issue with Foxy... I need to know how to address this strange behavior that Foxy has. She is my rescue baby (5 years old), and whenever we are riding she does great. But when we pull in the parking lot to wherever and are about to get outta the car, she starts whining in excitement and will not stop until about 5 mins out of the car. Its quite embarassing..I had to bring her to work with me today ,she has to go back to the vet, and whenever I walk away from her for a second, she squeals and "hollers" until I come back. Is there a good positive way to correct this behavior? She really has no other issues besides this? Thanks!

| My Cricket would squeal a lot w car rides. It was embarrassing sometimes - and would give some a headache! I asked the vet about it. He said it was anxiousness/nervousness and she was a very vocally expressive girl. He said just to accept her for who she is and let her express her feelings. |

| Sounds like she's just excited to get where she's going.... she knows she has arrived. As for when you walk away... that sounds like she is insecure about you coming back... or that she wants to go with you... maybe some basic training in a class setting would be beneficial....

| Thanks! I imagine with her history of going from owner to owner that would cause some anxiety, but I sure would love to work with her on it. I do need to look into some classes. Thanks again.
