LGD = Little German Dog
The Jetta Wagon is spending the weekend at the dealership. The good news is they found the leak: The grommets of the two wiring looms that go into the liftgate for the lock, wiper, defroster, etc. were not sealing, so water was getting into the headliner and dripping down through the tailgate and into the cargo floor. The parts have to be ordered from VW and with the car apart, it was just easier to give me a loaner.
The loaner has a "No Pets" policy, and Mrs. Saxman was taking the Corolla with our daughter someplace else this AM. That left me only with the Sprite to transport our two dachshunds to the Dachtoberfest in Frederick, Maryland, which had been postponed from the first weekend in October due to the threat of Hurricane Joaquin.
Surprisingly, my Little German Dogs took to the Little British Car and were extraordinarily well behaved. It was raining on the way to Frederick, so I had to keep the top up. I left it that way on the way home as it was pretty chilly. I think they found the car's vibrations relaxing, so they pretty much sat tight on the passenger seat. On the way home, both drifted off after being exposed to 150+ other dachshunds and Zeke (the grey one) howling his fool head off every minute or so.
Some say it is because the House of Windsor was originally the House of Saxe-Coburg that it was a natural for Little German Dogs to feel comfortable in a Little British Car. Next time, we'll hopefully try it with the top down!
