Growling at Lights in the Car? Sydney, who will be 2 in June, would sleep in the car and was so easy to travel with until a couple days ago. Now she growls and snarls non stop at the overhead lights and objects inside the car. We went to the beach as normal for a walk with my dad driving. Going to the beach, no problem. Sydney was buckled in her bag next to me in the backseat. My parent's dog Ginger rides in her bag in the front seat. This is all normal. Usually after she walks, she sleeps. This time, however, it's as if she suddenly realized there were objects on the ceiling of the car and started growling and snarling non stop. Going to the beach, no problem. We even went to a family reunion with 7 hours in the car, no problem. Now, big problem. We have another family reunion that we will be going to 7 hours away and I am really worried. I tried holding her up to the light so she could sniff it, but as soon as I set her back on the seat she would growl. I tried covering her with a blanket every time she growled, but she would only start back up once I removed the blanket. She is so wound up she won't listen to me or take treats. The walk at the beach was normal. Nothing happened. The girls went swimming a played as normal. We went to the park yesterday and she growled non stop both ways in the car. Any thoughts why the overhead lights all of a sudden bother her?
