To carry a dog to the veterinarian, on exhibitions, it is the one hunting most convenient in the car, but, unfortunately, not all pets treat this type of transport calmly. Some even the trained and clever animals forget everything what they were taught to, and begin to whine, run on salon, to jump. But the dog can be accustomed to the car by means of usual methods of education.
Instruction
1. To begin to teach a dog to behavior in the car it is desirable from early age. Lay in the car a special plaid for the pet, it is the best of all to use a familiar and convenient laying. You do not feed a dog before a trip and do not forget to walk her. If the dog rests and does not want to come into salon independently, entice it by means of delicacy. As soon as it came, praise it, give a treat and stroke. The dog of small breed or a puppy at first can be taken on hands or to put in a bag for transportation of puppies, and the large animal has to sit behind near the owner or other person. Play with a dog before a trip or even during it.
2. At first it is necessary to make short trips, for example, to a park zone or the natural area with a reservoir – there where it will be pleasant to a dog that from a travel she had pleasant impressions. On the road it is possible to stop, go out of doors few times with the pet. You watch behavior of a dog as soon as she begins to show concern, stop the car, encourage it, stroke. When she settles into shape, pupils will be narrowed, and breath will become more rare, it is possible to go further. You do not shout at all and do not beat a dog as unpleasant actions from the owner together with loud sounds, jolting and unusual feelings can aggravate a problem – next time the pet will be afraid more. It is necessary to accustom a dog to the car gradually, surely at the same time encouraging.
3. Increase the frequency and duration of trips. But if improvement is not visible, and the dog always badly feels, apply means against a motion sickness which usually prescribe children. Also you watch that in salon the conditioner in hot weather always worked or the window was open. When the pet gets used to driving in the car, it is possible to undertake long travel, but in such cases take a habitual forage and a bowl where during stops you will pour water. During the long trips do stops, let out a dog to play and run about.
