i always lock the doors when im driving. my car has barjo guard and tailgate anyway though

It has actually happened to me one, when the tailgate flew open when I was on a VERY busy A-road coming back from my horse One very smart gsd in the back, just sat there totally unphased, as I went into headless chicken mode, there was nothing I could do, too much traffic, and I was about to turn off right into my village. I just yelled stay, turned into my village, pulled over and shut it, phew! I suppose I hadn't shut it properly after throwing my horse stuff in the back.

I don't lock doors, except one back door which Zena scrabbles on when we near her morning walk, only because I worry she could open it. In all honestly, nobody's gonna be daft enough to put a hand in a car with two big gsd's in the back.... or are they? I like to know I can get out in a hurry even though my dogmobile has central locking, I just don't bother. My bimmer locks me in anyway after a minute on the road, but I usually disable it coz I don't like to feel locked in.

Well anyone who nicked my car or my purse would be sorely disappointed LOL neither of em have anything in them except junk!

I don't care if they steal the car (company one) but I DO care about what is in it, ie my dogs!

Same here xx

Usually if I remember I will lock the doors dogs or no dogs.

I always lock the doors when the dogs are in the car as they have the run of the back and I can just imagine one of them learning to open the back door!

Other than that I don't bother.

When I dropped my boyfriend (now my husband) off at bible college one night when he was in his final year I had a strange man come up in the dark and try to get into my car. I was so glad I had central locking then as I quickly pressed the button to lock all the doors.

After that scare I ALWAYS lock all the doors when I'm in the car now.

I don't drive, but when Jake is in my OHs car we don't usually lock the doors (although i am trying to remember to do that so we have done more so recently)... i don't really worry about someone carjacking the car with us in it (especially when my OH is the size he is!). He does however make me lock the car if he leaves me in it (if he pops into a shop etc), after a guy once jumped in the car to move it when i was in it alone... OH came out to me screaming at the guy, him screaming back at me and calling me every name under the sun... now, he won't leave me in the car alone if it is unlocked.

Me too - again, with or without a dog on board.....
