Sharon, I'm sure not trying to be critical.
It's ok. But that's why I don't drive around w/my dogs in the car. First off there's no reason to because there are very few places they can go. You can't take them shopping with you or doing anything where you're going to get out of the car and have to go inside someplace. I don't like the ideas of 'dog parks' because you don't know what's out there and what you're going to end up bringing home w/you unknowingly. I'm sure not going to leave dogs sitting in the car while I'm doing ANYTHING. We live too far from a beach or anyplace I could get to. Everything is at least 30 mi or more from me. I have 4 dogs and I can't take them anywhere one at a time. And surely not ever all 4 at a time. So really driving isn't an issue with me.
Now.. if I lived back in JAX and I was taking the dogs to the beach or anywhere else in all that traffic , you can be sure they'd all be constrained. But that's never going to happen either. Taking four dogs ANYWHERE is just out of the question unless I'm having to evacuate for a hurricane.
