My dog is going to kill me.

I had been planning to take my Kai for a walk after the men finished raking and moving the leaves to the street. She was having chasing the leaves as they raked them, so I did not think anything about it. I should have brought her in the house, because as I was cutting peppers for stuffed peppers, I heard "KAI get your butt back here." Then general commotion from the men. I looked out the window and the back gate was wide open and the men were in the street, no sign of Kai. They pointed the way they went and I started sprinting, Kai is a very fast dog. I thought that maybe she would come down the alley so I backtracked and sure enough that is where she went. But on seeing me she decided a game of chase was at hand so she u-turned and flew back up the alley. I am glad she did not get hit as she crossed two streets, with me in hot pursuit. She had never been that far up on that street, mainly because it is uphill. Then she went up to another street, where a family told me she was in the next yard as I came running, huffing and puffing to find her. When I got to the house she was gone. So I walked up and down that block shouting her name. No Kai, which is worrisome since there are wooded lots nearby. Just as I was about to give up and go get the car, Kai comes flying up the street. This time she came right to me, I guess she felt unsure of herself. I had no leash so I had to carry my 30 pound dog all the way home. She just crossed her legs like she was the Queen of Sheba. When she got home she immediately got in her crate. I think that she will not get that extra walk tonight, as I am now exhausted from my run.
