I'm going to the big "Your Dog is Worth it Too" event in New Jersey on Saturday with my yorkie. It's 1 hour and 30 minutes (or more with traffic) from here according to google map directions.

Should I buy a seat harness for Mckenna??? She has never been for a car ride longer than 30 minutes and she always sits in the back seat or the front passenger seat depending on how excited she is. Sometimes she is so excited that she stands up and tries to look out the window for a few minutes. one time she almost fell off the seat because she saw a group of people crossing the street in front of us and she started jumping up and down.

Also, do I have to make rest stops for her to relieve herself even though it won't be any longer than 2 hours? I plan to just drive it straight. I'm used to long car rides.
