car rides

[Sarina]

How to get Andy doodle into car?  He is not wanting to climb in himself but love the ride.  He is getting to big to lift.  We have tried the treats from putting on the seat to one of us holding them up for him to see from the other door.  One of us even will get into the back seat hoping he will join us on his own to no avail.   Any suggestions???

Awwww. I thought Jellybean was the only princess. LOL. Its paws on the seat, and then a big heave ho from the back. She will not jump in! We've tried everything

Ha Ha I have an UPDATE: Since I posted about Finnley's lazy ways yesterday, didn't she climb into the car today, each and every time we went out ! It was a slow gradual climb, but there was no butt lifting. Hmmm, maybe we are making progress ? lol

Yeah, Andy is now getting into the car by himself and we did not do anything special except verbal encouragement.

Hattie, now listen to gramma Sarina.  Do as mommy says when it is time to get into the car.  You will be rewarded with a nice car ride maybe to go shopping for a new leash or collar or some yummy treats. It will all be great fun.  We all love you and there is nothing to be afraid of.  Love you.

Hurray!

thanks, from Andy. He knew he could do it all along, just needed some courage.

We're about 50/50 on the lift versus jump!
