APPLETON, Wis. - A man accused of hanging his dog from its choke chain has been convicted of felony mistreatment of animals.

Thirty-five-year-old Eric Shattuck of Appleton pleaded no contest Thursday in Outagamie County Circuit Court.

The criminal complaint says Shattuck told a visitor on Sept. 26 he hung the dog after it refused to drink a fatal dose of antifreeze. The woman reported that the dog was still hanging in Shattuck's garage the next day. Police found the animal's body in a garbage bag in the garage.

Shattuck told the woman he killed the dog because he didn't want it anymore.

He faces up to 3 1/2 years of prison and extended supervision when he is sentenced Nov. 6.
