22. I took a photo of the dog in the car but I can't find it. Too bad, it was fun to see, in fact it's always fun to see.

We have a 2003 Mitsubishi Spyder that I'm afraid is done but we used to drive it around with the top down with my sons Lab in the back. He was a skittish fellow but he seemed to like being in the back seat with the top down. We laughed afterwards, seemed he was peeing back there on the blanket we had put down. He might have been a little afraid, he usually was.

We still have a 14-year-old golden that loves to go for rides, he's difficult to get in and more difficult to get out but if the car is parked in front of the house, he knows it's ride time and can't wait to get in.
