[QUOTE="smitty2919, post: 14602400, member: 113577"] Does she have a bed to sleep on in the house? I have learned that dogs are happy when there is something "common" or known to them. It would be good to give the dog a bed at home that gives the dog a sense of safety and peace. If she falls asleep on the bed then she feels comfortable and safe enough. I would place the bed along with her favorite toy on the front seat. Then pick her up and place her in the passenger seat on the bed with the toy to calm her nerves. Maybe stand next to her with the door open and keep giving reassuring notions. Keep petting her and try to distract her from the fact she is in the truck as much as possible. Then after a while maybe leave her in the passenger seat on her bed and get in driver seat and play with her. Then when that is OK, back the truck up and go forward in your driveway all while petting her. Then go for a small drive. Make small steps. I agree with you OP, I hate the idea of drugs. My dog had terrible anxiety/howling/chewing issues when he was left along during the day. That was the hardest thing to treat. Thankfully he learned that we were coming back home and if fine now.
