That's scary. I would be wondering if someone didn't try to do something to her while you were gone. People can be so cruel to animals. I never leave Zeeke anywhere unattended (except home, inside) and I've trained him not to take food from anyone but me when we're outside, just in case.

Zeeke loves going outside all the time, but recently our front porch got infested with wasps. Now everytime he goes outside he gets divebombed by wasps. Now he gets so skiddish everytime I open the door, and I have to drag him out, till we get past the wasps, then he's fine.

I thought maybe your dog too might be afraid of something IN the yard, bugs, rodents, etc...

I don't know, Just my two cents. I hope you get it worked out and If you find out anyone did anything to her, Call me, I'll help you kick their butts.
