Rob Ponte Webboard User Reg: 08-18-2003 Posts: 23 Loc: canada Offline	I was driving down the highway the other day and for some reason my dog went nuts,he started barking very agressivly at a van. im wondering if anyone has experienced this before. the van that pulled in behind us was a japanese model mitsubhsi delica, whern the van passed us he followed while he was still barking. I know this is a weird question, i am all upstairs i think but just want to kn ow if this has ever happend to any one else thanks Rob

Toby and I were going to get one and sell his Golf but he got laid off so not yet. Uhhh...anyways. Does he bark at other cars? How close was the van? Was he upset about anything else or nervous already? I could be wrong but I'm not sure dogs distinguish makes of cars. Teagan!

Rob Could be an engine problem causing an odd (and inaudible to humans) noise that the dog barked at. See if you can find a car lot with the same make and model of van to drive by with the pup.
