Abandoned Dog In Detroit Rescued After Being Found Roaming The Streets With A Stuffed Animal
By Mike-Ross
The scene was heart-wrenching: a German Shepherd was seen roaming the streets of Detroit all alone, with only her beloved stuffed animal for comfort.
However, this lovely dog has now been rescued and is out of harm's way. As per FOX 2 Detroit, residents noticed the canine wandering around and, despite being a female, they referred to her as "Nicholas." The locals stated that the dog had become homeless following her owner's demise.

As the dog’s story spread, a number of local groups — including It Is Pawzable Dog Training, South Lyon Murphy Lost Animal Recovery, Sugar Mutts Dog Grooming, and Almost Home Animal Rescue — came together to trap the dog and get her to safety.
“Everybody comes together and works as a team, which is so amazing,” Katrina Weaver, the owner of It Is Pawzable, told FOX 2.
Thankfully, their rescue mission was a success: Almost Home No Kill Rescue reported on May 3 that the dog had successfully been trapped and was now in their care. They renamed “Nicholas” “Nikki,” because she’s a female dog.

“Only good things from here and onto a better life!” the rescue wrote on Facebook. “Thanks for all your support Nikki will now get to be in a loving home!”
There is one complication: Nikki reportedly has heartworm, which will require four weeks of treatment. Nikki is now taking it easy, receiving medication and going on leash walks. When she is recovered, the rescue will begin looking for her new home.
