Speaking live from Symi on BBC Breakfast on Sunday morning, BBC Correspondent Joe Inwood said: "The authorities have said that they will continue the search, they will continue to look for Michael Mosley until he is found, but the longer it goes on the more that hope will dwindle I'm sorry to say.
"Another thing we've learned this morning is that the search and rescue dog who had been on the hillside is being sent back to Athens. Now that could be a sign that they are winding down, but it's also being reported that it's so hot here that the dog has been burning its paws on the hillside and so can't work because of the heat.
"Now we don't know which of those it is but that is a development we've had in the last hour or so."
