You may think it's cute, but it's stupid and irresponsible to have a dog, no matter how ridiculously tiny, leaping around inside the car while you're driving.
For one thing, it's distracting for the driver, and it's not unknown for small dogs to get themselves under the brake pedal.
Also, consider what would happen if some idiot shot out of a side road and you T-boned them. Your car would stop almost instantly, but the unrestrained dog would keep moving at the speed you'd been doing. Your little darling is unlikely to survive hitting the inside of the windshield, even if you've only been doing 30 mph.
My dog goes nuts when she knows we're going to the beach
