"The girls' dog, had run off."
It looks to me like a dog ran off, and it belonged to more than one girl. Perhaps there shouldn't be a comma but can someone please share the rule on this?
Many thanks

Yes, you should not put the comma and the dog belonged to more than one girls.
But the idea is incomplete. You are using past perfect tense - "had run". You need another point in the past.
When the girls came home, they found that their dog had run off.
So there are two points in the past - the girls coming home, the dog running
Both happen in the past but the 'dog running' happens before the 'girls coming'. To show this, you put 'dogs running' in past perfect and 'girls coming' in simple past.
So either use simple past "The girls' dog ran off" or extend the idea to include another point of time in the past.
