A dog is still without its owner after a hiker found it cold and alone in Big Cottonwood Canyon.

The 10-year-old Springer spaniel was found Wednesday wrapped in a blanket under a log on the Butler Fork Trail. The hiker took the pet to a veterinarian, where the dog's temperature was determined to be 94 degrees. The dog was also very hungry, said Salt Lake County Animal Services spokeswoman Temma Martin.

Anyone with information that could lead officials to the dog's owner, or determine how the dog ended up in the canyon, is asked to call 801-269-7413.

If no owner is found, a rescue group will adopt and care for the animal.
