We just rehomed a Springer female from a breeder who was retiring her - no charge but she just cost me some major heartache. We brought her home last Sunday evening, got her through the front door, took the leash off and she panicked and bolted back through the door before we could close it and never stopped running. Obviously scared and didn't know where home was, I wasn't real hopeful on a good outcome. She was spotted a couple times a day through the week, so she was staying close but wouldn't let anyone approach her. We finally caught her in a live trap yesterday and I've been loving on her and spoiling her since. She's on the couch next to me right now and follows me everywhere, but this past week was an absolute living hell worrying myself sick over her.
