Unlicensed Dog Walks to New Canaan Police Department

More

Police discovered two unlicensed dogs in a Church Street home after one of them apparently walked out an open front door and made its way to department headquarters.

A passerby spotted the small white Maltese-type dog walking along the sidewalk on South Avenue by the New Canaan Police Department, “looked at the tag and brought it the Church Street address on the tag,” Animal Control Officer Maryann Kleinschmitt said.

“The door of the home was open, so they put the dog inside, closed the door and then called us,” Kleinschmitt said.

It happened around 11 a.m. on Nov. 17, according to a police report.

Kleinschmitt didn’t recognize the address, but after visiting the house, discovered that two dogs had been living there for one year.

“It was a little surprise,” she said.
