Calm down betty, not nessicarily the owner's fault. Our old Vizsla, Amber, somehow taught herself to open the gate to our yard. We came back from Church one day, and she came out to greet us at the driveway.
No need for her to calm down. She loves dogs (pitbulls judging from Facebook) and really cares for them and alot of people abuse there pets which Is very saddening.
