Dog Seen Wandering Streets With Tattered Toy Is Living 'The Good Life' After Rescue

A dog photographed wandering the rainy streets of Detroit carrying a dingy toy in her mouth has had a major change of luck.

The heartbreaking image of the dog, now named Nikki, was posted on Facebook last week by Michigan nonprofit Almost Home Animal Rescue League.

"This beautiful German shepherd dog has been wandering the streets with his toy stuffy in his mouth. We were told his owner passed away," the post read. (Nikki was initially believed to be a boy, but rescuers later learned she was a girl.)

Two days later, the post was updated with good news. Another organization, South Lyon Murphy Lost Animal Recovery, had managed to catch Nikki. And things only got better from there.

"Nikki is in the most loving foster home as I write this," Gail Montgomery, director of Almost Home Animal Rescue, told HuffPost in an email. "They already love her and omg Nikki loves them."

Montgomery suspects that if all continues to go well, Nikki's foster family will adopt her permanently.

"Nikki is enjoying the good life," she said.

As for the toy seen in that first photograph, Montgomery told The Dodo that it was "extremely dirty and a total mess." Rescuers washed it, repaired it and returned it to Nikki, and at first she couldn't wait to cuddle with her freshened-up toy. But Montgomery told HuffPost that the dog now isn't as attached to it as she used to be.

"She is so content with her foster parents she doesn't even need her stuffy much anymore," Montgomery said. "I guess it was her security binky."

The Countdown Is On To The June 30 Opening Of Toy Story Land With These Latest Toyriffic Updates

Reach for the sky partners! The countdown is on to the opening of Toy Story Land on June 30! We're going to be there for opening day and hope you'll be joining us in all of the fun. Here's some more "toy-riffic" news is emerging as anticipation builds for the colorful new land coming to life at Disney's Hollywood Studios.

Toy Story Land-Disney's Hollywood Studios Walt Disney World

Guests will "shrink" to the size of a toy as they enter into this land full of everyone's favorite toys, building blocks and game pieces. Across eleven fun-filled acres designed to recreate Andy's toy-filled backyard from the Disney·Pixar "Toy Story" films, guests will be fully engaged in the wonderful world where Woody, Buzz, Jessie and all their pals come out to play. Attractions and experiences straight from Andy's imagination will treat park-goers to the best playtime ever – even after the Tinker Toy lights come on. © Provided by The Adventures of Life Toy Story Land Disney's Hollywood Studios Walt Disney World

Here's some freshly unwrapped news:

Alien Swirling Saucers. Designed as a playset Andy won at the Pizza Planet restaurant, this all-new attraction is out-of-this-world fun. "Toy Story" green aliens have powered up their flying saucers and earthbound guests get to play along. In rocket ship toys, guests swirl and whirl among toy planets and space stations as part of the game while "The Claw" hangs overhead. This space adventure is bathed in multi-color lighting and sound effects from throughout the galaxies. NEW: Disney has released the first-ever images of the new attraction, showing the toy spaceships being piloted by everyone's favorite aliens.

Ten-hut! Just announced, Sarge and the Green Army Man Drum Corps will be marching several times a day through Toy Story Land. As the Drum Corps marches on, everyone's invited to follow another contingent of Green Army Men to their fun and interactive boot camp, where they'll "toy" with guests using giant Pixar balls, oversized crayons and a game of SARGE SAYS (their own spin on Simon Says). Will guests have what it takes to become official recruits in Andy's backyard?

Wheezy, the squeaky toy penguin from the "Toy Story" films, will do more than bring smiles to the faces of guests riding Slinky Dog Dash, the family-style coaster coming to Toy Story Land. The all-new Audio-Animatronics figure will appear in the last scene of the coaster singing "You've Got a Friend in Me" in that great (and unexpected) voice of his. Wheezy will be accompanied by his toy friends: Mike the tape recorder, who's provided him with a microphone, and Mr. Spell, who "texts" funny commentary.

After a day of play in Andy's backyard, guests can relive their memories with fun merchandise created especially for Toy Story Land. Just announced – headbands are crowned by three-eyed space aliens or Slinky Dog. Slinky Dog also inspires a toy with light-up rings; he can even strrreetch around the waist or shoulders and double as a fashion accessory.

Kids get bragging rights with commemorative "I Played There" t-shirts that let the world know they were among the first guests to Toy Story Land. These and other playful items will be available in merchandise locations found in Toy Story Land and at select shops in Disney's Hollywood Studios.

Come join us in Andy's Backyard – To Infinity and Beyond! The Toys Are Here! It's a joy-filled, toy-filled world as only Disney can create, and it's all waiting for you. Toy Story Land opens at Disney's Hollywood Studios on June 30, 2018.
