dog messing in the car

I'm just asking this on the off chance that anyone has a bit of advice as I think it is just another case of being patient but I'll ask anyway u never know

My pup hates the car! had her a month now and shes done about 10 car journeys none longer than 10 mins and she messes and pees everytime.

We are in the process of taking her round the block in her crate (had to resort to this as the car was getting covered however much cardboard we put down!) in the back of the car which is an estate so shes not in a horrible dark space. Its about 3/4 mins tops but she eliminates prob 100 yards from the house. Been doing this for 4 days now and not had a clean run as yet. I know its early days and we will keep at it till she can manage it.

She really doesn't seem stressed at actually being in the car she jumps up and looks out the window and seems ok when we get her out apart from the fact shes sometimes covered in poo!

Just wondered if anyone else had ever had this problem and had any idea how long before they could take them out. Our other dog loves goin on walks in the local forest, but a 10 mins drive is too much yet and its a shame they are missing out on the fun!
