I saw that earlier...I think it looked like a plain dog too, maybe a chow/rott mix or something. If it had gotten hit by a car or it was sitting there for a little bit, it would look wierd..animal control should be the ones picking up roadkill too, so it's not just decaying there. I was surprised to read that it had sat there for a couple days after being discovered-and that no one had taken it for their own? People tend to do things like that.
