I think Dharma caused a stir.
Someone left the gate open, and she got out of the yard.
Dharma has genetic deformities(presented themselves quickly in puppyhood). She has all 4 legs, but only two are 100%. One back leg is useful, though bent. They other one is shriveled and only serves to scratch ears.
Dharma drools. Everywhere.
I'm sure a bunny hopping dog with a drooly mouth looked suspicious.
I heard the other two dogs carrying on, and realized what happened, and put her back in.
I saw animal control scoping the area real gingerly with a special truck, though. I'm imagining someone reported a rabid dog lol
