OMG I thought Truffles was going to get killed!

[Rae Rae]

That's scary! I think she just wanted to play tag and didn't realize the dangers. I'm glad your both O.K!

First and foremost we are all glad that you are both OK - it's very scary and your heart is racing a mile a minute and you are not even thinking about yourself or what can happen. All you are thinking about is your baby and catching them. We had something similar around the 4th of July at my niece's house - she had the baby gate up to keep Izzy from going out to the main driveway out to the street - well we all were keeping an eye on her and then poof - she was not around - we called and called her and my heart was going fast and I was almost in tears - here because she is so small - that little stinker squeezed herself through the baby gate slats and meandered down the drive and down the sidewalk. Some people heard me calling her and they yelled from their car - "Hey lady - we think your dog is waaaay down there." I almost had a heart attack and then you don't want to scare them more cause they just run and fly out into the street...so I had to be real calm and have her come to me. Needless to say we have to put window screen on one side of the baby gate so she would not sneek through the little bugger.

You just never know with these guys.

Glad everyone is safe and sound.

Thank you! Deb, you know Crow Canyon road is where I live and THAT is the flippin' street Truffles was running down!!! There was definately an angel (Lexxi?) watching over us both last night!!

[LoveMyGirlz]

Thanks everyone...I see I'm not alone! Some of you know the adrenline, the fear and the helplessness I was feeling!! It's crazy that you don't even think about yourself at a moment like that! These babies are truely my daughters, and now I know I am not exadurating when I say that cause I felt like a mama tiger protecting her cub! At all costs! My friend says "look at you sacrificing your own life as if she were the president!!!" Damn skippy!!!

I know! And unfortunately she is still trying to run out the door everytime it opens! I do not know what has gotten into her!? She is getting worse - she ran out again today, but she only went to the grass where I usually "allow" them to go, however she did not listen and come when I called her! I had to go get her!

I have a sitter staying here till Sunday while I'm outta town and I am a nervous wreck! I am gating the front porch while I'm gone for sure, and when we get back home......we are practicing some strict sit/stay and come commands!!!

I'm glad everyone is ok. Their so fast when they escape.

[yorkieusa]

No, you are most assuredly not alone. I think a good many of us have been in similar circumstances at one time or another. The fear is something you never forget. Hope your road rash isn't too bad.
