ADA TOWNSHIP — The second of two dogs who were stolen from a home Tuesday and thrown from a moving car near Spring Lake has been found.

Ziggy, a 3-year-old pit bull-boxer mix, had been missing from the Grand Valley Estates home since Tuesday morning. He belongs to the Anderson family, whose 9-year-old Golden Retriever, Emma, was also taken and injured.


The family spent time searching for the dog in the Spring Lake/Nunica area and found him today, according to an MLive post by Marc Anderson.

Marc Anderson's father, Tom, told The Press on Wednesday that Emma had been found by a resident of the Spring Lake area.

The resident reportedly spotted Ziggy, but could not lure him to her house with a treat. The woman contacted authorities, who tracked down the Andersons.

Tom Anderson said he was told Emma was in rough shape and appeared to have been thrown from a moving vehicle.

Marc Anderson's MLive post indicated Ziggy was found injured as well.

A motive for the theft remains elusive, as do suspects.
