hello!
Hi there
With regards to the travelling situation, there is a very good product sold over the counter at most vets called DAP, dog appeasing pheramone...it comes as either a plug in or a handy spray. If your dog is anxious in the car, simply give inside the car a quick spray (only apparent to dogs) and place your dog in. It has had fantastic results...i am a qualified vet nurse and this product has worked wonders in many situations. It's designed to work in almost all situations of house training/separation anxiety/destruction etc. i have yet to hear a negative response to the product. As for the other issues, a plug in near to your dogs bed may be useful.
DAP - Is essence is a dogs happy scent...it's the same smell that a mother has with a new pup. It may take a bottle or two but once your dog begins to feel settled you should find that his perceptions of travelling will change at which point you can taper it off and hopefully you shouldn't have any more problems
I'm afraid that as for obedience i cannot help you as i have many issues of my own where thats concerned...good luck!
