There are many ways an otherwise well-monitored pet gets loose, (although apparently not the case with Chewy.) My husband looked out the den window one day to spot our dog meandering down the middle of the street. The front door had blown open. My friend's two goldens went on a romp in a swamp when the pool man left the gate unlatched to her CYV. Our "driveway dog," who loved to chill in the yard in Michigan, was brought back to us by a neighbor, dragging his tie-out line & apparatus behind him.
Cats are known escape artists--much more crafty than dogs at getting out. Small dogs are quicker and more agile at bolting than large, lumbering dogs.
The list of ways is endless, even if you are the most careful of owners. Here's hoping the latest ones find their way back home.
