Squish once managed to break his collar and dash into a busy road; he got across untouched, but the fucking great truck that missed him by ten inches took ten years off my life.
His recall is a million times better than it was, now; I've worked on it like crazy and he is pretty bloody good. I still usually keep him on his 20-yard longleash in the park, though. Enough length for him to run and have fun, enough strength to keep him safe.
