NEW YORK (WABC) -- There is a happy update about a dog that was found brutalized and abandoned in Brooklyn.

The shepherd mix named Saint Vincent has been adopted by a family in Garden City.

He was discovered in December in a trash bin in Brooklyn, stuffed and sealed inside a plastic bag with his mouth taped shut.

He's been recovering from his injuries and is able to walk again.
