Kari, you did NOTHING wrong at all!!! Unfortunately, dogs sometimes startle and escape. This was a horrid accident that you could not have predicted or prevented. As you said, the adopters loved her, you loved her.

 

I have a dog of my own and a foster who both have PTSD-ish behavior and startle. And when they do, it's very hard to calm them and get them to listen. Some dogs are totally non-reactive to noise, and some freak out. If they are the latter kind of dog, even hyper vigilance sometimes will not anticipate every time they zig when they should zag. Particularly if she hadn't done this before.

 

I've had Gypsy for a year, and she still startles. But she has a harness, and if she did get loose, at this point I think she'd come to me. But a year ago? Forget it. Something in her brain was too inately fired up.

 

ANyway, that's a long way of saying that you shouldn't blame yourself. You and her adoptive parents have my deepest sympathy.

Tami, Nikki & Gypsy (non-greyhounds, but still pretty good dogs.) Deeply missing Sunscreen Man, Angel (Back on the Job), Switzler Festus and Joe (Indio Starr)

OMG, what a tragedy. I am so sorry for you and for her new home. What terrible sadness.

You loved her and made her happy for the short time she was in your life. That is the greatest gift of all.

 

Godspeed angel Hana!
