Thank you for the advice. We will start restraining her in the backseat.

As for walks especially, she does have a harness. But I have found even when I give her a firm jerk on her leash, it does no good. After an especially trying walk where I was constantly having to get her attention and giving her a tug reminder with her leash, she seemed almost fearful and wouldn't come to me when we got home.

I don't want to make her fearful or afraid. But I also hate that she won't respond to my commands and directions. Is it possible she is sensitive and I need to use another training method with her?

I wonder if I should get a gentle leader or martingale collar just for training purposes.
