Confused Does your pup race out the door every time you open it??!!

Hello all! I searched the threads for this question before I asked it, assuming my Sasha isn't the only yorkie that does this, but I couldn't find anything! Every time I open my front door it seems that she's waiting right there and darts out! She runs all the way to the other end of the neighborhood and starts barking like crazy at all of the other dogs down there (thankfully they're all behind gates in back yards). Every time I have to get in my car and chase her, it takes like, 20 minutes... and I'm going crazy about it! I ended up making a sign that said "Before you open the door, where's Sasha?" and hung it right by the doornob so that everyone in the house would make it a point to know where she is before they exit. This has helped a little, but does anyone have any good advice as to what other steps I could take in training her not to do this. I'm just so scared that one day someone's big dog will be outside and she'll become a snack...
