Always make it all about her, a new toy a treat and plenty of praise...something for her at the end of each ride. Keeping my fingers crossed, her going with you to visit the therapy or special needs dogs would be great, I'm thinking this will do her a world of good.  Keep us posted, can't wait to hear all the stories.   |  
 
  Thank you for the tips, I will certainly try them. Starting out with short trips and increasing them I think will be the key. Fingers crossed! She hasn't shown any other signs of anxiety but boy the car trips make up for that! Thanks for your help
