Terrifying footage shows the moment a dog's leash got trapped in an elevator door and he was nearly choked to death.
Shocking surveillance video sees Tamara Seibert struggling to save her 110-pound Rottweiler Vado as he flew to the ceiling of her Toronto condo lift.
Desperately pushing emergency buttons, she broke two fingers and shredded her hands as she tried to free him from his collar.
With the elevator plunging from the 11th floor down to the parking garage, she eventually managed to sound the alarm.
Luckily, his leash snapped and the doors opened just in time — throwing her beloved 5-year-old pet to the floor, and saving him from what she thought was an almost-certain death.
"I thought I was going to watch him die," Seibert told the Toronto Sun of the horrific March 2 incident.
"He was picked clean off the ground. I just panicked and was going to do whatever I could to get him down. We just kept going down until his nylon leash ended up snapping," she added.
The 25-year-old Ryerson University student, who was also looking after a pal's pit bull also seen in the clip, asked block managers for a copy of the minute-long footage so she could use it to warn other pet owners about the dangers of elevators.
"I just want people to be careful, I've heard so many horror stories from different people," she added. "It could be a child's scarf, a leash or a long dress."
