    its a big pain to load my 2 in the car, plus they both get very restless in the car, because they have figured out that if we are going in the car, we are going somewhere fun lol.. there really arent many places to take dogs around me, so they get to on short car rides to petsmart, to go hiking, the dog park and, to "aunties" (aka, doggie disneyland )

    Yup, almost daily. I do a lot of running around and hate to drive alone, so I bring at least one pup most of the time. Both are great in the car. They have a special pillow they sleep on during car rides. =P

    It depends. Bitsy comes with us most often, usually if we're going to either my parents house or Justin's parents house.

    For the heck of it? No, can't afford it with gas being so darn expensive

    Now, if I'm going somewhere like the petstore, somebody else's house, or running errands I usually take the boys. I don't even have to say anything anymore, as soon as I grab my keys they're both booking it towards the car, lol.

    THAT IS A REALLY GREAT SHOT!!!

    Geez, I thought this was a NO BRAINER - I thought everyone would take their dogs for a ride sometime. But I see that it's not that easy with some of the bigger and maybe less behaved guys - not to mention those who may be afraid. Bob and Ginger love to go rides - and like all/most dogs, just love to hang their head out of the window!!!

    Not just to go on a ride, but I take Jasper (or Star and Wilbur) our on errands with me when I can. I love having them with me!

    Thank you Wolf_Q!

    Of Course!

    Of course! The Doggers love the car, and any trip is a good trip (especially when the nice girl on the drive-thru at the Tim Hortons provides treats).

    I had a couple pictures of the Doggers anticipating a car ride embedded into a post in the Dogs-General forum (and yes, Maggie always makes that face).
