I'd not be sure if the dawg demagnitized the content tape. But you'll find out soon enough. Just don't wind it too tightly... and run it thru the vcr front to back several times to allow the deck to set the tensions. The hubby has fixed a few of ours that way.

Good luck!
I have repaired several VHS tapes that way but this Mini DV tape is very small. I wouldnt mind sending this off to someone to repair. I just don't know who or where.
