...of the non-operant kind.
Sarra loves to ride in the car. Whenever my boyfriend and I take her somewhere she eagerly jumps in. Today I took her with me while I was picking up dog food and the whole time we're in the car she is panting and stressed out. After I obtained the dog food and tried to get her back in the car she got really stubborn about it, but finally went in.
I got home thinking, 'What on earth kind of behavior is that?' Then I put it together. When my boyfriend and I take her places it is always in his car and we take her to daycare or down to his Dad's place that has a huge fenced yard and beach front. The only place she goes in my car is to the vet. Bingo.
I think I now must start a campaign of riding in my car without going to the vet, even if we just drive to the pet store or out to another park, anything but the vet.
That is my story of unintended consequence for the day.
