MIAMI — The dog who went viral for eyeing a hot dog at a Marlins game got his happy ending.

Video from Monday night’s game at LoanDepot Park showed Jonah in the stands, watching longingly as the dog next to him got fed a hot dog. The clip spread fast online, and the Marlins put out a call to track down Jonah and his owner for a royal day at the stadium.

Turns out, his owner says Jonah gives that look all the time.

The 6-year-old pup, rescued in Aruba, has since gotten his hot dog. But those who know him best say his real favorite food is ice cream.
