[nagdu] taxi transport

[Tami Jarvis]

Daniel,

I had a heck of a time figuring that one out, too. /smile/ Sometimes the 
cabby would prefer we ride in front, where it is easier to just get in, 
leaving one leg outside until the dog is in. For riding in the back 
seat, I would get in on the passenger side so that the front seat could 
be moved forward to make room if necessary. Then we would get in the 
same way. Sometimes it was difficult in the back seat, though, because 
there wouldn't be room for the poodle to turn around to get out. So I 
started using the front seat if the driver was okay with it. Portland is 
super dog friendly, so a lot of the cabbies couldn't understand why I 
didn't just have the dog on the seat. /lol/ I wanted to train her to do 
it right. A few times I was in the back seat and leg room was too tight 
for the dog to be properly on the floor, I have given in and let her be 
on the seat if the driver suggests it first and if it wasn't rainy out.
