"Our head keeper stopped the shoot to look for her and managed to located her down a pipe hole, which is an underground peat chamber that lets the water run, by listening for her breathing," gamekeeper Jonny Stevenson, the man who crawled down the hole, told STV.
"After digging about 6 ft of wet peat, we broke through and pulled the dog out.
"It was very happy to see us."
Jazz has now been safely reunited with her owner, Karen da Rosa.
"She actually came out toasty warm and happy as punch," she told STV.
"I thought she'd be freezing and in shock, but I think the mud kept her warm.
"One lucky little dog and owner."
