A story that began as a case of a dog that was stolen from the Animal Rescue League in Boston one month ago when a person who wanted to adopt a three year old mixed pitbull named Nick in April has been found safe and sound this week.
The Animal Rescue League in Boston offered a reward of $1,000 to anyone who would return Nick back to the animal shelter safe and sound.
One person who read about the story was taking care of Nick when he wanted to contact the Massachusetts Society Protection Cruelty of Animals (MSPCA) in Dorchester Massachusetts that he wanted to see about getting vaccines to the dog.
When the Dorchester Good Samaritan found out that the dog he was taking care of was Nick, he agreed to give back the dog to the Boston Animal Rescue League on Tuesday evening.
The Good Samaritan told the animal shelter that another person. He did not know that Nick had been stolen.
However since the Good Samaritan took care of Nick, he will get his reward of $1,000 dollars from the Animal Rescue League for his honesty.

Me too since the majority of dogs being kidnapped usually ends up in a tragic end.

@Deepizzaguy Did they get the thief? Do they offer sush rewards when a baby is lost?

The Animal Rescue League reported the theft. The man in Dorchester Massachusetts took care of the dog before he returned Nick back to the animal shelter this week.

That is what I am trying to find out. Who would steal a dog from an animal shelter just for kicks? That person is in big trouble.

That is what I have always wondered why steal a dog from an animal shelter instead of adopting a pet? The person who stole Nick is in big trouble.
