Will somebody tell this goofy pup that we are NOT going for a ride?!?

So 1 this afternoon, I headed into the garage to pull a bag of shavings out of the car. Luna immediately decided we were going for a ride, and the instant I opened the door he jumped in the back.

He's been there since 1 this afternoon and absolutely refuses to come out! I tried to lure him out with promises of cookies. Jake tried to talk him down. It's now almost pitch black out. He's been sitting in the car waiting to go for a ride all freakin afternoon



Ok, I broke down, grabbed the goat lead and dragged him out I don't know what is wrong with that dog....he is so freakin' silly sometimes!

Take him for a ride around the block.

Once, I could not find my dog. I was getting scared. I thought she had run away. I got in the car to go look for her. There she was! I hadn't seen her climb in when I brought home groceries. We went for a ride.

Just a short ride?

Otherwise, I'll have to take multiple trips, one for each pup, while the other one waits at home all jealous!

Luna's in now, napping by my feets

I park right outside of the door so he walks by it everytime we walk.

He could be there for hours waiting. It became a game of wills. He would jump in the car too. But my poodle would jump in a get him out. I have no idea how he did it.
