DURHAM, N.C. (WTVD) -- A Durham puppy that was stolen recently and then returned has been adopted -- the right way this time -- from the Animal Protection Society of Durham.

Little Lazuli was dognapped from the shelter last week but the 7-week-old German shepherd-boxer mix was returned safely during the weekend.

And now, Lazuli has found her forever home.

The APS said she was adopted Monday and that she is healthy and happy.
