My dog has got loose twice since we got him in March. The first time, I opened the door for my wife to come in from work and he bolted out the front. He thought we were going on a walk!!! I started walking after him because I heard if you run, they panic. Well he didn't stop. He went even faster. So then I started running after him at a nice jog, calling his name and telling him to sit. He wasn't sitting, he just kept running faster.
Eventually after I chased him down the road for approximately a quarter mile, he stopped to take a crap ha ha ha ha ha. I ran up to him and caught him then. It scared the crap out of me; I tend to love dogs more than most things in life.
The second time he got loose, he was tethered to a tree outside when we were washing our cars. He saw a dog walk by who was being walked by our neighbor. He took off after the dog, broke his leash in two, and tore down the road at amazing speeds. Then he started going apeshit barking at the neighbor and their dog so I was able to catch him.
Man the adrenaline really pumps when they get out!!!!!!!!!
