Animal Control Searches for Dog That Bit 81-Year-Old Man

Stratford Animal Control is looking for a dog that bit an 81-year-old man to ensure the animal had been vaccinated for rabies and the man does not need additional treatment.

Police said the man was jogging when he was bitten on the right forearm on East Main Street, about halfway between Main Street and Wilcoxson Avenue , around 9:30 a.m. on Thursday.

The dog, described as a medium-size collie type dog with long orange and white fur, ran off and police are looking for the dog’s owner.

The man suffered minor puncture wounds and was treated.

If you have information on the dog owner, call Stratford Animal Control (203) 385-4068.
