This story has made 8 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 2: it even to the Washington Post. But it happened on 9 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 2: in Kangaroo Island. So a couple, Georgia and Joshua, were 10 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 2: camping on Kangaroo Island and they left their little miniature 11 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 2: dash hound, Valerie, in a playpen with toys. It's cute, 12 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 2: isn't it, Because they were camping, so they left it. 13 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: Valerie was occupied, had little toys and things. 14 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: These are the times that we live. 15 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 3: Well. 16 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 2: They went off to go fishing at a beach nearby. 17 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: When they came back, they found that Valerie had ripped 18 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 2: the pen open and had escaped. This is a year old, 19 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 2: tiny little miniature dashound, weighing about three and a half kilos. 20 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: So they searched. 21 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 2: Everywhere, but they said it was like looking for a 22 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 2: needle in a haystack. So they joined a Facebook group. 23 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: They checked surveillance cameras, got help from local wildlife rescue 24 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,400 Speaker 2: groups at all of that. They stayed for another couple 25 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 2: of days, but they had to return home and on 26 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: the faery, Georgia has said, on the ferry on the 27 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: way home, I just sobbed and sobbed.

An unbelievable development, they said, given 31 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 2: that miniature dash hounds are not known for their survivors, 32 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 2: not very robust, as they've said here, of all the dogs, 33 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 2: this would be the last one I would think would survive. 34 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 2: But they do have a good sense of smell.
