Esta, My dogs love the car too, and would much prefer waiting for me there than at home. I take them most everywhere with me, from short errands to longer trips. *However* I am extremely careful about heat and ventilation. Even on cool days, bright sunshine can heat the inside of a car and pose a serious danger to a dog. In hot or very bright mild weather, dogs are much better off waiting at home. And even though Berners are very cold tolerant, as a rule, I don't take them out to wait in an unheated car in bitter weather.
So like in all things, common sense wins the day. Patricia McIlveen (Yeoman, Reba & Gus) Calgary Canada -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If one had to leave a dog in a crate for three house or in the back seat of the car for three hours, which would you recommend?
