Riding along in my automobile...

Today was the first time in months that Milla got to go on an actual joy ride and not just tricked into going to the vet. Saying she was over the moon is an understatement. I honestly thought she was going to explode from excitement.

We used to take her everywhere with us, but had to slowing stop doing so when she ruined the backseat of our car by viciously shredding the seats. Anything would provoke this behavior -- dogs (especially), cows from a distance, people! It became too much and she completely stopped listening when we would pass things that made her fly into a hulk induced rage. You can understand why we shut her off, can't you?

Anyways, we decided to give her another go today. For the most part, she did great! It was when we were a mile from home that she completely snapped and hulked out. We were stopped at the start of our road so that I could take pictures of her... go figure. Of course, up walks this little black and white dog to the car -- completely oblivious that there was a beast 10 times his size sitting behind us. He produced absolutely no threat and seemed as happy as could be to see us.

That's when hulk freaked out and started wailing! She was screaming (you know that GSD scream), barking, and started to assault the backseat. LaVaughn practically got in the back with her and hid her eyes. The poor little dog didn't know what the hell was going off and ran for the woods.

So... where do we go from here? Can we trust her driving down the highway and run the risk of her seeing another animal (or human) and not be able to stop her from destroying the backseat? This is exactly what we faced last time and exactly why we had to stop taking her with us. At least she had today, though. We all had dinner at McDonald's, so it really made her day -- and mine as well!

Love & Peace

She's stunning.

Look at that gorgeous GSD!
