Barking when car stood still

opie is really good at travelling in the car. he doesn't make a sound when the car is moving, just lays quietly on his blanket. if the car stops still even for a few seconds and he sees anyone he starts barking his head off. as soon as i start driving again he stops. the main problem is when we park up. he doesn't stop. how do i get him to be quiet when we are parked up? i've only been driving a couple of weeks so i don't want to be blacking out the back windows. it's also only a small car so i can't fit a crate into it. any ideas

Wish you luck! I have EXACTLY the same problem with my minpin.

Having managed to get her to TRAVEL in the car without getting all OTT - it is now only when I stop! Geez it's deafening but stops the minute I get out and close my door.

Over-excitement at where we might be going? No idea. But it's only the volume that is a problem and it was a major achievement to get her to TRAVEL without going nuts so I am not complaining too much!

It could be excitement at `arriving` at his walk?
Try taking him places like the supermarket so he knows sometimes he doesn`t go for a walk when he gets in the car?

Is it excited barking or is he guarding the car?
