Staffies on the move

What are you Staffies like whilst in the car?

Jade is fine most of the time but will sometimes shake like mad or hide in the footwell if something scares her like a loud motorbike. I was thinking of getting a doggy harness for the car - has anyone else got one they could recommend?

Have you tried DAP difussers or DAp sprays. They release the same pheremones that mothers release to their pups. They are excellent fo seperation anxiety, firework night, car travelling etc.

You can buy then from your vets or some pet stores. The diffuser you plug in (obviously) but the spray you can spray on to their hoodies, their bed, a fav toy etc.

Missy is fine she sits in the back and looks out of the window but Mista sits there and wines but coming home after being for walk is fine.

Kane loves the car, dunno why cos he doesn't even look out the window. He sits on the floor in the back till we get to whereever we are going.

Bonnie cries as soon as the car starts moving because she doesn't get any attention, Max on the other hand wants to put his head out the window or sit in the front to watch the traffic. We always put a harness on them in the car for their safety, you never know whats ahead and they are our babies.

Akashas a noisy bugger she gets so excited but its quite scary if you have never experienced it before she allso got out of the car harness and nearly strangled her self
but then again she nearly jumped out of the window after that so dont know which is more scarier
so from now on i just hold her between my legs much safer.....me thinks

Much safer as long as its not you thats drivin Kerri!!!!
