When their dogs run away, they take it personally and think their dogs are running away from them not realizing their dogs just NEED to RUN. When asked for advise in dealing with this I tell them to harness the dog, train it to run constructively and go with them.
Sorry for the rant, but this is a subject near and dear to my heart. One of my favorite rescues is the Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary. The person who runs this place really knows her stuff and does it right.

I agree i have been told 10x by various people that their dog was a wolf. YOu know by their calm nature and looks it is just some mixed sled type dog. But i dont try to ruin their pride i just say oh really. lol
