Hi,
I do this all the time in the taxi vans here and Saunders loves it. He
either lays down to sleep or sits and wags his tail at stuff going by.
Usually because my purse carries all, I throw a bone that I keep in a
ziplock bag with him to chew on and he is fine. Just my opinion.

Hi!
I took a taxi yesterday, and the driver asked if I wanted to put Jenny in
the back. This was a completely open area primarily used to transport people
in wheelchairs. She would have had plenty of room, and I had full access to
her, but I said no, I didn't feel comfortable having her in the back like
that. It was a full taxi (4 people), so the question didn't aggravate me
like it otherwise might have.
My teammates didn't say much beyond "She'd have so much room back there!" so
I didn't feel judged or anything, but I was wondering on your thoughts. Did
the driver have the right to request this?
Jenny did end up sitting in the back seat with me, curled up by my feet.
