Cosi Fan Tutti Frutti
When I collected Barney, he had already lived apart from his mum in a barn along with his brothers and sisters...so it wasn't such a wrench leaving her.
It was an epic journey from Oxford to Durham to bring him home....and that initial jorney is so important as I believe it has a big bearing on how your pup views car journeys in the future.
I had borrowed a cat cage(!) to use but in the end he spent the journey on a towel on the passengers lap. (Saves your trousers getting pee'd on!) He seemed to like that....I certainly did!
They also recommend soothing classical music be played to soothe the savage beast. The only thing I could find in my CD collection remotely classical was 'Cosi Fan Tutti Frutti' by Squeeze. I think he made the jouney back to the strains of Elvis Costello instead. I think the classical thing was probably made up by someone who was a bit boring probably! :wink: Anyway, the music was obviously given the paws up from Barney and he cuddled in.
A few wee stops and the journey home was deemed a success....as for how he reacted to his new friend when he arrived... an old Collie called Tess...well that's another story!
Good luck!
