Murphy betting any birds yet? As soon as they realize there is going to be birds at the end of the ride they can't wait to get in.
Welcome to the board and enjoy the ride with Murphy.

gsp lol madmurphy is my training partner with the dog as REBA is the dog, i've even tried to lure her out with the dead birds after i get back home and she won't come out of the truck, she don't have a problem when i leave to train but getting back later forget it! i thought maybe the hight of truck could be the issue? anyway leaving in a hour for more training. :D

Depends on temperament.

I start on tailgate teach kennel with ear pinch... slowly work to ear pinch on the ground till dog jumps in.. don't advise you use this method... maybe just beg??

Well same old stuff she won't come out of the truck or go in, so i tried a new one on her. sunday i took her out to the car this time and well and behold she got in and out with no problem. so now i have to figure out what the problem is which i think is a height problem? any suggestions would be helpfull as picking her up every time is a pain!!!
