| Taz's Momma Hi everyone, just adopted Taz a month ago, he's 3 months old and lives up to his name, but he is extra special sweet! Weighing at 1.7 lbs, he thinks he's the big dog around the house! The only thing I'm really having problems with is riding in the truck! He starts shaking the minute the door closes! The problem is my daughter lives 2 hours away-we've been over there 3xs and the vet once, so don't think he's associating with vet! We go back to vet this week, am going to ask if there's anything she can suggest! I've started riding him around some to hopefully get him over this fear! If anyone has any suggestions, will love to have some advice! Breaks my heart to see him shake so! |

| Some of my babies Do Not like truck rides but do fine in a car or my mini van. There is a different kind of pressure in a truck versus a car & some never get used to it. There is 1 thing you can try, do you have him in the seat where he can't see out well ? If yes, you can get a booster seat as that can make a huge diff. |

| Welcome! Mina does better in her carseat. She knows that it is her special place,she can see out or snuggle down and take a nap. |
