Not all dogs like to go for car rides. Some dogs may associate the car with the vet and the vet makes them anxious so the car does too. If your dog is not too keen about riding in the car there are some ways you can help him overcome this fear or at least become a little less anxious. The main thing to keep in mind is that you want to replace any type of bad experiences associated with the car with good experiences. Allow your dog to become comfortable around and in the car. Let him just walk around the car sniffing it from bumper to bumper. Leave the doors open and let your dog choose when he’s ready to jump in and explore. Don’t start the car or try to shut the doors on your dog until he has shown you that the anxiety is gone. Your veterinarian London, ON can help you with this.
