Lol, you’re so desperate for your narrative to fit.
I also live in a condo. Something like 80% of the people in my building are pet owners, and pretty much everyone is a friend to animals. We don’t leave doors propped open. There is the slightest of chances that all three doors between my dog and the outside fail, nobody is around to stop him, and he suddenly develops a lust for adventure. That, however, is an incredibly unreasonable situation. If I was worried about something that unlikely then I would probably also have agoraphobia or something. There’s no way on earth I’d use a vending machine, that’s for sure. Those things can kill you!
There is an acceptable level of risk for everything. If we only engaged in 0-risk activities then we wouldn’t ride in automobiles, own kitchen knives, shower, or even eat. I think the most responsible thing people can do is assess their own risk and act accordingly. There is effectively a 0% chance my dog is able to reach the outside without supervision, so I have decided to not leave his harness on 24/7. Your circumstances may be different, and I respect that. I’m not going to try to shame you into my way of life. Because that would be silly.
