I did try that at the beginning. When we 1st got her if you put her in the car she would shake terribly, so for about a week just put her in and out not going anywhere just praised her and she got a treat and she def doesnt shake now. So I guess thats a start. Will try the starting it up with her in there and see how she goes. We will get there
