Yea, we are dreading the drive
matese. His screaming isn't near as bad with him in the back seat (
pet booster seat) now. When he was sitting next to me in his Tote (
on the wife's lap) - it was just tooooooo loud!
We went out twice yesterday. The morning trip (about 20 minutes one way) he was pretty quiet and only whined a few times but no screaming UNTIL we hit the parking lot. After we left the shopping center - he screamed all the way home.
Our second trip was met with screaming both ways. On the way home yesterday, the wife and I decided to "scream" along with him - he stops - looks confused - realizes what we are doing and goes right back to screaming.
Got me thinking here - his screaming always stops when I take him in the store with us or step out of the car. The wife mentioned yesterday that it is very noticeable - the moment I step out of the car - he stops - when the wife steps out of the car he continues screaming? In order to take him in the store with us I have to step out of the car -
hmmm. When I pull into my favorite coffee stop (
wife still stays in car while I get a cup to go) - he stops when I open the door and exit. When I wait for the wife (
while she runs into a store) he keeps screaming - I just open the door and step out of the car and come right back and sit down - he stops screaming. Dang - I wonder what that is all about? If I could figure out a way of stepping out of the car while it is moving and get back in - hey, I might have a solution!
