She'd lost weight but was generally undamaged despite being away for four days and spending so many hours in the dirt and muck. The video documenting her rescue has received over 3.6 million views.

"We're just glad to have her by our sides again and, yeah, give her cuddles," Vernon said to the BBC.

Vernon says in another TikTok that she believes Flossie found a hole, fell through it, and then dug her own trail underground, barring her way out.

"She just fully, you know, buried herself alive," she explained.

With that in mind, Vernon said it's "amazing" that they found her—and they'll keep a closer eye on her when she walks outdoors from now on.
