Jackson was like this as well. I didn't know what to do about it! After many rides in the
car, he became absolutely fine! So it's probably just a puppy thing. Everything is so new
to them. I would just consistently do car rides and associate them with good things.
Never take him in the car and then bring him somewhere horrible! Then he will think that
car rides = bad things. Give him a treat maybe everytime he gets in the car. He may grow out
of it or he may not! Jackson grew out of it and now loves the car most of the time. He sticks
his little nose out the window and enjoys it and sits very quietly strapped in the back seat,
where as he used to bark and bark and whine. I would say when Jackson was around 18-20
weeks old, he became pretty comfortable.
