hi Arlene, Michelle and Henry,

thanks for the suggestions.  i'm going to try the shade and 
hopefully that works for her.  i also realize i need to get a 
windowshield shade...i've always been able to bear the heat of 
stepping into a sweltering car, but it will be dangerous for Oyin 
while waiting for the a/c to cool us off.  i used to carry her into 
stores in a bag..she's very easy to get into one!  but even those 
have been a problem...managers at walmart, target, etc...saying no 
dogs allowed.  i'm making her a baby carrier - almost like the pea 
in a pod brand, for those that are familiar - to carry her in, and 
hopefully we'll be able to get by unnoticed.  

Melissa

intended 5 minute interaction means an hour. Does he/she like to go 
in a bag? Get yourself a discreet one. I bring him everywhere with 
me..if its cool I let his head stick out if not we have a little 
drill (he actually learned the words "be sneaky now" -LOL) and he'll 
duck down in the bag (that took treats to the tenth power and time) 
but what I'm saying is its pretty easy to get them in places (which 
are usually AC'ed) like Home depot etc etc without too much 
notice...also there so darn cute staff are usually ok even if its 
wrong. plus if they pooped (which we know they won't) it'll be in 
the purse!

lighter, summer is another danger and with the price of gas we can't 
afford to leave him in a running car.
