11/13/02 18:15this is my dog, r-lo, barking inside the car. everytime he gets in the car he becomes so excited that he can't contain himself. he runs from window to window barking at everything outside the car. i've tried almost everything to get him to stop doing this, but according to animal psychology the behavior is being positively reinforced. he barks at objects and people, in effect saying to them, "go away, this is my space." unfortunately, it appears to him that they do go away as my car speeds past, and so when he sees something else, he barks some more.

This has to be the "R." I cannot believe it. R, if this is you let me know. Do you still play your "best game?"
