history: This afternoon our neighbors dog got loose and he is very aggressive. The kids were outside playing in the yard. I didn't know what to do! My heart was racing.. A dog in our neighborhood got loose earlier while the kids were playing in the front yard. He is very aggressive and I could just imagine being at the hospital later. Oh no_comma_ that is scary!  Did his owner get control of him quickly?
current: I was able to rush the kids inside the house before the dog approached them. The owner was closely following behind with his leash. 
next: Goodness, it was a good thing you were right there and able to usher them inside so quickly.  I can't imagine the results had you not been able to get to them quick enough!
