My parent's dogs have always been great car riders. I particularly remember two -- Matt - big ole coon hound type and I think it was Heidi -- a mostly Skiperke. They loved the car sooo much they would would beg to go sit in it -- even if it wasn't going anywhere. In the garage or on the driveway -- they would sit in it for hours -- taking turns "driving." They would sit, sleep, change seats -- very content.

We would say the dogs were "going to Cleveland."
