The 2-year-old child, whose name was not released, was found in the woods hours after she had left her home in Fathorn on the state line between Michigan and Wisconsin, The Associated Press reported.

She was asleep with her head resting on the smaller of the two dogs, using it as a pillow, Michigan State Police said.

The other, larger dog, stayed next to her, protecting her, Lt. Mark Ginnaunzio said.

She was found about 3 miles from her home, unharmed.

Crews from both states — including drones and multiple police K9 units — helped look for the girl, WZMQ reported.

A person on an ATV found her.
