I'm so glad she found a family that loves and appreciates her.

And I will hold my words for her former owners because if I start I won't stop. Grrr.

It's bad enough that sometimes one will run away and get themselves lost, but to do something like that? Those owners should be dropped off in the middle of some wilderness with a couple of granola bars. If they can find their way out, they get to live.
