JJ Belcher on Teaching Your Dog to Ride in The Car

In this video, JJ Belcher discusses how to introduce your dog to a vehicle and to ride in the car. Here JJ starts by acclimating the dog to the car. Once the dog is comfortable around the outside of the car, using a crate we will begin acclimating the dog to the inside of the car. Once the dog is comfortable getting in and out of the car we will start taking short drives in the car. Slowly we will build up distance and duration in the car.
