Training a "Bolter"?
So I love my dog. He's great. He's sweet, gentle (for a big guy), travels well and is great with his foster-siblings.

BUT. Of course, there's a but. No dog is perfect.

Still, this problem is starting to 1) scare me and 2) annoy me and 3) make me lose my patience with my dog. He has a really bad habit of bolting out the front door when someone opens it, leaves without him, etc. Now I live in the country most of the time. So when he bolts and goes for a walk in my very small town, it's okay. I hate it, but he's not in a big danger of getting hit by a car. But when I'm in the city, my heart practically stops. My dog is going to get hurt.

In the dog park, he returns when I call him. When he bolts, he doesn't.

And my dog is fast. I've never met a dog who can keep up with him, let along a human. Help?
