Oh no!
Reminds me of a family dog we had. She loved car rides and would get excited when you took her leash out (since we lived on an acreage it meant she was going somewhere in the car).
When I was university, my dad was bringing her to come see me. He was outside with the dog, put the leash on the hood of the car, and went to the back of the yard to get something. Dog wasn't with him, for some reason. He came back and the dog was on the hood of the car beside the leash. She wanted to make sure she was going where the leash was.
