Departure distance and length of absence depend on the reason for running away. For example, on New Year's morning (it was still dark) we were driven out by a delobuch, she came in the evening and waited at the gate. According to the homeless in the "nearby grove" (about 4km behind the road) that day, she was hiding near them in the forest. Until the "pyrotechnics" have calmed down and there has been silence rdTrdlo´ the dog can sometimes get lost even on a straight road, run around and sometimes shout If he escaped for a bitch, he will return after "fulfillment of animal duties". (Unless they lured him to a raging bitch "dog hunters") If he hunts, he either catches prey or stops enjoying it, then he comes back. If he knows the area and is used to the cottage he will usually return, but be sure to call a neighbor if he decides to shorten the vacation and return home. (And this sometimes happens) she saw. Ask your neighbors for help. Sometimes call him, as they say: as the forest is called, the dog returns ...] :)
