I know this is unsafe but I couldn't deal with a sick dog all weekend again. I also did not feed him that morning. He started out in his bed and then worked his way over to my lap, then crawled up behind my neck and laid between my neck and the seat the whole trip! I guess he found a good spot! Worked for me, as I don't really like him in my lap while driving. He did not get sick and did not have diarrhea once we arrived. On the way home, he did the same thing, but ended up sitting in my lap most of the trip.
This seems to be the spot that works for me too. Oh, and singing....don't tell the pups I stink at singing, but it calms them
