We got Sophie at about 12 weeks, and we have taken her everywhere ever since, vacations, etc. She gets very excited when we ask her if she wants to go for a ride in the car. She also loves to go to the vet and even knows when we are getting close. She gets excited. She does not like being at my daughter's house because of her two dogs.

But she loves the ride there (to Minneapolis). One thing we have noticed is that she pants when she rides in the car, even when she has the air conditioner blowing right on her. I don't know if it is nerves or what, but she always wants to go!
