Hi, Everyone.
I have an update on Nikki. For starters, I misunderstood my friend, we were both so upset, the little Maltese's name is Rikki, not Nikki. And she is lost in Michigan, not Canada.
My friend lives in Canada, but she placed Rikki with a friend that lives in Michigan.
The full story is that my friend placed Rikki with a friend, named Elisa. Elisa had lost Rikki's sister, Lacey 5 months ago. She was snatched. Elisa's grief was so was so deep, that she was literally dying, so my friend placed Lacey's only living relative, Rikki, with her, last week Wednesday. Elisa did not tell my friend, that she had her 27 year old son living with her and that he has ADHD. Elisa went to the airport and left Rikki home with her son. He FORGOT that Rikki was not allowed to go outside, and she was barking & howling, so he opened the door and she ran out. He chased her, and she went across the highway, and has been spotted around two churchs. There are also houses and businesses there.
My friend and her husband live 3 hours away in Canada, but as soon as they got the call, they drove to Michigan, and missed finding Rikki by 1 hour.
She took her Rescue dog, Ghandi ,with them, and let him mark the entire area for 3 hours. Then, they had to let him warm up in the car, while they continued to search.
They have an amber alert set up, and I am posting the link to the ad.
Please, Michigan members, if you live anywhere near this area, please I am begging for your help.

Furthermore, Rikki is not going to be returned to live with Elisa. My friend wants her back.
Thank you for any help you can offer.
