I got a chihahua and winer dog mix from my local SPCA about 2 months ago. He loves to ride..gets me out walking.... Anybody ever run into problems w/ having a dog in the truck??

There are shipper/receivers that do not allow pets on their property. If you are a team, a co-driver can wait outside with the pet. That's what we do.
I have seen drivers with pets leave the pet tied up or in a crate outside the gate, but I could never do that.

I spent 11 hrs at Cummins today, and while I understood why dinner was delayed [if the mechanics were racing a glacier, my money would be on the ice] the dog did not.
As a wise man pointed out, dogs are high maintenance - but worth it, IMO. :)

Cheri brings up a great point. Some things are more difficult to do when you have a pet. In addition, we idle (use the generator) now for the comfort of our pet when we are out of the truck, where we might not have had to before.

Is having a girlfriend in the van considered having a pet with you?

Ahhhh I hope she doesn't come on here and see that post. You might not have anything to worry about if she sees it.
