ChrisL Posted January 29, 2018 Share #1 Posted January 29, 2018 We had a horrible incident yesterday with Jack. My daughter's future MIL came by to drop some things off and asked for Jack as she loves him and he comes over to her house frequently. I was inside so my wife asked me to bring him out through the garage. So I scooped him up and walked him out. MIL's window was down so I put Jack through the window on her lap. He was perfectly calm until I put him on her lap... The poor guy started shaking uncontrollibly!?!?!? He just sat there shaking with this look of fright so she opened the door so we could get him and he bolted right into the house and ran upstairs to his bed. We calmed him down but I wonder if maybe he thought we were giving him up?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you guys take him to the vet recently in the car? Tough to know what those dingoes are thinking about in their little melons, but there usually is some sort of cause/basis for the shaking. My dog has super-hearing, so she hears "bad" stuff like UPS truck or the trash truck way before we do, and she immediately retreats to her safe spot.

Tom We've never taken an entire family vacay so he has been home with usually my daughter. She will often bring him to her MIL's and they spoil him rotten when we leave so he knows her. Loves car rides but always sits back seat. No recent vet trips or anything traumatic. Car rides mean walks so he normally hauls ass into the car. Yeah don't know what happened to him before or what it triggered but it wasn't good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually get along well with her future in laws. My daughter can only take so much of her but us parents are cool together. We get together for dinner often.

Something about what we did seems to have triggered a bad memory or thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
