"It's the owner's responsibility to leave a contact number and they didn't...
The owners were irresponsible and you did the best you can. It's not up to you to fix their fence or buy harnesses to tie them up. I hope the dogs come back but don't feel bad."
I once had an old dog go down in a seizure on my grooming table. Had I just accepted that the owner had no emergency contact information, we would have had to wait for hours at the vet's before the owner showed up and the dog could be treated properly. What if a dog 4H&H was watching had escaped and been injured, requiring emergency medical treatment? Nobody could have known if the owner would prefer to have the dog euthanised right away, or how much they were willing to spend on treatment. They also wouldn't have been able to find out any information on the dog if it had any medical issues that the vet would need to know about before treatment. It's just the right thing to do to make it your responsibility to be able to get in touch with someone if you are in charge of their property, not to mention keep their property safe while it's in your care.
