    Margie, dog taken from Detroit yard, reunited with her owner after a wee

    Margie, a dog who was stolen from a yard last week on Detroit's west side, has been reunited with her owner.

    We're told a man called her owners, including Kat Delph, and said he had been caring for her for a few days, and the owners didn't ask questions.

    According to Margie (Marge's) owners, it appears the person who took her, also removed the tag that was on her harness. She ended up loose in a neighborhood, where we're told a kind man took her in because he was afraid of a loose dog.

    Surveillance video showed the moment when Margie – also called Marge z- was snatched from the front yard by one of two men who were walking by when one of them decides he's going to take her.

    "And he threw ... some bag or something to his friend, and he came over here, and he just grabbed her by the harness and just dragged her off down the street," Delph told us last week.

    It was devastating for Kat and her family, including their other dogs, who are missing the dog known at the state fair as the butter cow mascot.

    "Please bring me my dog back. You know where I live. I won't ask any questions. I don't want any confrontation. I just want my dog back," said Kat.

    "We love her. We just want her home. Like I said, no questions asked. If somebody needs a little bit of money to bring her back, I'll give them a little bit of money. I ain't got a lot. I live here in the hood. But, you know, I'm happy to help," she said.

    We were told that English is not the first language for the kind man who took her in, but he saw a flyer in the neighborhood and could see the markings were the same as the dog he had just taken in days earlier. When he called Marge's owners, they were in tears when they saw her.

    The man also did not want anything in return, saying no to any suggestion of money.
