So my dog Lando absolutely freaks out whenever he rides in the car with me. Panting, crying, shaking and extremely uncomfortable. If I try to reach out to him to comfort him he will avoid my touch. Have tried having him in the front seat next to me or in the back and it makes no difference. I’ve never scolded him in the car nor have we had any traumatic car rides together. He’s always been like this.
I travel a lot for work and he has a handful of babysitters who have taken care of him over the years and all have reported that he’s been calm and normal in their car rides.
What am I doing to trigger my guy like this? I really want him to be comfortable and to see him so distressed is always upsetting.
