Puppy's first trip in a car

[ilovemydachsie]

When we drove to get Molly, It was a good 2-3 hour drive.
We went to the lady's house, got Molly, and drove back.
This was her first time in a car for a little while, and she did very good.
She slept most of the time. And she didn't cry or anything when she was awake.
We've been in the car a couple times since we've had her, and she did the same thing, she went right to sleep. I guess cars make her tired lol.
Just thought I would share my girl's success in car rides :)

How nice that she likes to ride. Make sure you keep taking her.

Some pups have to be sedated to ride in a car. You are very lucky that she doesn't.

Yeah, she's been in a car about 3 or 4 times.
Only one long ride, bringing her home.
I'm getting her as used to a car as I can.
And by the looks of it, she's fine in a car.
Within like 5 minutes of being in there, she's asleep.

Tucker does the same thing in a car - within 5 minutes he's zzzzzzz. I think the 13 hour car ride at 10 weeks old from KY to MI (only stopping every 2 hrs. for potty, water and a few kibbles) must have him convinced him that every ride is going to be a long haul, so he may as well sleep LOL.

Maya does well in the car also. She rides in a small carrier and all I have to say is, "Let's go for a ride", and she runs in her carrier and waits to be carried to the car. She LOVES it whenever I stop at McDonald's. She knows she just may get to nibble a fry.

Samson loves going for rides in the car too. He usually only rides in there if he is going to Petsmart for training, or to the vet. But in any case, he loves jumping in, and does a combo of napping and looking out the window (he can't decide which is more exciting). He also likes to bark at the guy next to us when at a traffic light. Glad he likes the car. I've had dogs in my time that loved the car, and others that would vomit every single time.
