A dog picked up by Danbury Animal Control off of interstate 84 is now up for adoption because his statutory hold is up.  They've received no calls to reclaim him. 

Officials say he appears to have been abused, with his snout scarred from either being tied or tie wrapped shut.

Danbury Animal Control says a municipal pound is no place for a little dog, who has shown no signs of aggression and they believe would get along with another dog his size. They believe the dog is approximately 2 to 3 years old.  More information and applications can be obtained by contacting Danbury Animal Control.
