The 96 - arcsecond television starts on a bleak note : The hot dog ’s owner observe she ’s keeping an optic out for a body . Mario had fallen into the channel behind his home eight minute earlier .
" We do n’t want [ that ] , obviously , but , no , you need to have an resolution , " Katz tells her .
The pair set out to wrench away from a rest white-hot - and - blue boat — Mario ’s possessor talking about how her husband had searched for the dog earlier — when Katz hears a phone . you could hear it , too , at the 27 - second mark : some quiet whimpering .
" What ’s that ? What was that ? Was that you ? " Katz asks before hear the whimpering again and lowering herself into the water .
She ’s found Mario . It ’s toilsome to secern from the GoPro telecasting , but the orange Pom was somehow alive under or inside the rear of the gloomy - and - white boat . Katz was able-bodied to wheedle him out as his owner uttered " no way " and " you ’re kidding " in the background .
His proprietor had checked that area for Mario twice , she evidence Katz in the video .
" You heard that . I never would ’ve get a line that , " she separate Katz . " That ’s why you were here . That ’s why you were here . "
