While many dogs enjoy the excitement of a car ride, not all of them share the same enthusiasm. Ideally, dogs should find car rides fun, but if your dog always seems miserable during a ride, it’s likely due to anxiety or motion sickness. Some dogs may associate cars with trips to the vet, which can make them feel uneasy or frustrated. Others might simply feel anxious at the sight of a car, especially if they’ve had negative experiences in the past. This is especially true for rescue dogs who may have experienced fear and danger on the streets, where they had to avoid getting hit by vehicles.

But why do dogs enjoy car rides so much? Their love for traveling in a car can be traced back to their natural instinct as pack animals. In the wild, dogs lived and hunted in groups, so being in a car with their humans and other pets gives them a similar sense of joy and excitement as if they were on a hunt together. This helps explain why they can act so silly during car rides — it’s simply their true nature coming out, a moment when they can just be dogs.
