I DID lose one of my babies several years ago that way. My husband forgot something in the house.....ran back in.........left the door open.......ran back out.......got in the car and left. Nobody was home at the time. When I got home that night and called out to my babies...........only one of them was there. I was heartbroken.........put up posters and checked the Pound every day for weeks, but "Sport" was gone . Then several years later, I left a door open, Rookie got out and I didn't even realize it until he was scratching at the door 3 hours later

I thought he was up in our room sleeping. Another time, my son didn't pull the door closed all the way before he left the house and Rookie got out AGAIN! This time, my neighbor saw him and literally chased him back in the house (he isn't very friendly)

. Needless to say, since those incidents all those years ago, I am paranoid!!! One of the last things I say to my husband before I leave to go anywhere is "Make sure you shut the door and my babies don't get out"!!!! Sorry to ramble on and on..............I'm SO happy you got your baby back!!!!
