| Traveling in the car Lucy is 2 1/2 years old. She is a wonderful family member and we adore her. Unfortunately she gets really nervous traveling in the car. We have put her in a crate secured behind us and have also tried a pet car seat. As soon as she sees the car she starts shaking. She pants the whole time in the car. When she gets out of the car she is is great and enjoys being out and about... This has been a problem since we got her at 12 weeks old. She has not had a bad experience in the car and isnt car sick. We want to take her everywhere we go but I wonder if she would prefer to be left at home. We work during the week and cant wait to get home to spend time with her. We want to spend every moment with her on the weekends and take her wherever we go. Any advice?

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Are you sure it's fear? Roxy has displayed very similar behavior at times, but have decided it's excitement. She wants to go everytime we leave the house and truly loves riding in the car & looking out the window. She often shakes & pants for awhile, but loves every minute of it. Maybe more frequent rides would help?
