Cry We nearly lost Poppy...

Yesterday while I was at work my Dad took Poppy out for a walk.
They were walking along and Poppy started to get a bit over excited jumping around. Suddenly she jumped into the air and sort of twisted and slipped out of her harness! I have absoloutly NO idea how she got out of it because it fits her perfectly and is not slack at all. The harness fastens with a plastic clip on her back then has two D rings so you clip the lead through both. My dad left the lead exactly how it was when she slipped out of it and it was perfect, I have no idea how she got out.

Once out of the harness she ran and ran, my Dad totally panicked and chased after her. Suddenly a pit bull came round the corner, it didn't chase her but it could have! she started to run towards the road so he shouted at her really loud and she cowered and stopped, it was not a nice thing to have to do but atleast she stopped and he was able to pick her up.
My mum said when he came home he was a nervous wreck, he was shaking and couldn't breathe so had to use his inhaler. He thought she was gone forever.

I have NO idea how she got out of this harness and am frightened to take her out again. This is the style of harness she wears:

I dont know what to do...
