NORWOOD - A dog found burned and abandoned in Norwood is on the mend.

Police are trying to find the person responsible for the second-degree burns on Annie's body. Investigators believe someone poured hot water on her.

Police have pulled surveillance video from the Burger King along Route 1, where she was discovered. 

"If you've even have a small burn, you know how painful burns are," said a rescuer. "This is a very cruel abandonment"

Annie is about 2 years old and is likely a Beagle mix. Annie is being cared for at the Animal Rescue League of Boston's Dedham shelter, which is seeking donations to help pay for her medical care.
