Brett Spear Webboard User Reg: 01-13-2010 Posts: 15 Loc: Houston, TX Offline	My 2 year old blue heeler/border collie has started barking when riding in his crate in the bed of my truck. He has been riding like this for almost a year every day and just started doing this last week. He will bark non stop after riding for about 10 minutes and not stop until we get where were going. Should I put on his tri-tronics bark collar or will the wind make it go off? Any reason why he would start doing this? Thanks Brett

Does the dog start barking in a certain location on your trip is it possibly the location and not the ride.

Is the crate free of any dirt ect. Did you change the type of crate recently? Maybe he has just figured out(with some maturity) that he is going someplace to have lots of fun & is excited. My female screams & sings like a canary, when she gets in her crate in the truck, when she even THINKS that she is going somewhere to 'work'. There are some here that can vouch for her level & intensity of vocals. MY DOGS...MY RULES
