I have a friend called Wendy who had a Rotweiller called Scarlett O'Hara. Wendy used to drive a Mazda RX7 turbo convertible (944 shape), and the dog would sit in the passenger seat - wearing a head scarf when the top was down! The car has since been sold and the dog has died.

:lol: well, yes, I understand the "bin the Rav" ! it's my rainy day runner and something to put my Old English Sheepdog in! However, she does look seriously funny in the Porsche as she has to sit in the front seat of course and as it is a LHD, people that pass us do a double take because it looks like she is driving. Sometimes I take her for drives just for the laughs it gives me!


totally agree with the bin the rav4 idea, keep the 944 and carry the dog in front, got to be worth it just for comedy value, dog driving car !!

You simply MUST keep the 944 just for that amusement value alone.

Ditch the RAV4 and buy thick blankets to protect the 944 seats :lol:

So much for living happily ever after.
