Unfortunately the second day after I brought him home at 10 months old, he broke his leg and it needed surgery etc... So I think he just associates the car now with all the frequent vet visits for cast changes and X-rays etc...he's very apprehensive of new people and it takes him some time to warm up... So taking him places with people is terribly stressful for him. he can do short trips but he's literally panting by the time we get home. I haven't tried the thunder shirt but I think I will. I got him one of those mesh vests that fastens with Velcro and then the clip and it seems to help when he's having a high anxiety moment. So the shirt will prob work great for him. I've tried the car seat too and he just quivers in fear and tries to hide and not look out the window... Total opposite of my 15 year old... He loves to sit up high in the car seat and loves when the wind blows in his face... Poor little Frankie tho would die if I even opened the window... He will be three this April and his panting has turned to the dreaded honking so I'm hoping that when he goes for his annual checkup in another month that they won't diagnose collapsed trachea... Although I fear that's what he has... If that's the case then I will not be able to try and "retrain" him for a bag or the car bc any stress can cause more progression with the trachea collapse... But we will see.
