PSA: My dog ate my film and I had to develop the roll anyway

I left a roll of Fuji Superia 400 on the coffee table for five minutes last Tuesday, and my beagle thought it was a new chew toy. I still sent the slobbery, tooth-marked canister to the lab because I had shots from my sister's birthday on there. Has anyone else salvaged photos from a physically damaged roll?

That's some serious dedication to the craft right there. Honestly, the lab tech who opened that canister deserves a medal. Hope the birthday pics turned out okay through all the dog slobber.

Tried drying out a waterlogged roll with a hairdryer on low heat. The lab said the emulsion was surprisingly intact and they saved most of the frames. Sometimes you just have to send it and hope for the best.
