Do You Let Your Pet(s) Ride in Your Car?
Do you let your cat or dog ride in your Vette? I have two smaller dogs and have not given in to letting them ride in the new Veette. I wondered if anyone else did. I just read a post about an owner letting their cat ride in the car. Just not sure I want to go that route.
Thanks,
HF

I allow my miniature schnauzer to ride along, but he always stays in his kennel in the "trunk" area.
Once he was sitting in my fiance's lap in the passenger seat for about an hour during a long road trip.
No issues at all... but I still would never allow the dog to just jump up in the car and run around. I'm pretty persistent about always making sure he stays in the kennel.
But, then again... he's a dog that's used to travel, so he just lays down in the kennel and is fine with it.

Ahhhh....come on guys! I have 2 pomeranians (remember me, the one who locked them both in the car and myself out when I closed the FOB in the trunk) and they go everywhere with me! You should see the looks "I" get!!! Never sure if it's about the car or the pups!!

You guys dont have any idea what youre missing! What's the harm? they sit in the back or in your lap and say nothing but enjoy the ride! And if it's the fuzz....well there's always a vacuum!

The Minpin (Miniature Pinscher) get to go anytime it suits. She rides well, having learned to lean into the curves, plus she makes for a pretty good intruder alarm, although the pooch sees every stranger that pulls up along side as a potential intruder.
The cat, on the other hand, would have to be knocked out and duct taped before it got it the car.

I love my pets, but damn....I'm particular about what people I let ride in my car, much less let animals ride!

On occasions as she does like to cruise. Rides only on my shoulder, arm or hand. Shifting can be a challenge. And yes, she is potty trained.
