Bandit once ran out of our yard at 2am....I always tell my hubby to stay out there with him but of course he didn't listen....so he woke me up yelling and I somehow heard him bark and knew he was 2 houses down in the backyard of the neighbors he hates lol. It was the worst feeling ever. I was looking for him for less than a minute but it was the worst minute of my life. We live in townhouses and have privacy fences and I somehow yanked the door of theirs open at the bottom even though it was locked and grabbed him. I noticed a tiny space in the fence where the gutter drain goes so I put lattice all along the bottom to make sure it NEVER happens again.
So scary....so glad you found him
