A four-year-old Chihuahua came to the rescue of an eight-year-old Chilliwack girl after a neighbour's pit bull attacked her and began biting her face.
Jenna Desrochers was outside in a backyard last Tuesday at around 5 p.m. PT when the neighbour's pit bull broke free from its enclosure and went after her.
Soon after, her grandmother's Chihuahua came to the rescue.
Anne Marie Desrochers, Jenna's grandmother, says the pit bull knocked Jenna down and began biting her face. Honey, a four-year-old Chihuahua, then came to the rescue by drawing the attacking dog away.
"The pit bull took Jenna down at the knees, that's what the owner had told me, and basically went for her face."
"Then, the Chihuahua was around...The pit bull ran for the Chihuaua. She was distracted enough," Desrochers said.

Like my Lily, it looks like your girl doesn’t like the camera either! I’ve got some friends whose adult son has a pure bred pit bull named King. The biggest potential source of injury from King would be an assault by a quickly wagging tail, or else being licked to death! I am sure that some of the more panicky Freepers may consider he is just ‘having a taste’ before biting! (sarc)
When 60 pound King visits his mother and dad’s house, he plays with a 9 pound Pug and a 25 pound Pug/Miniature American Eskimo-X. Guess who is the boss? Yes, the 9 pound Pug.
‘Zactly! When they outlaw pit bulls, the media will then focus on Rottis, Dobies and Shepherds and the ‘feral’ types, the low information, MSM following types, will soon move to those breeds. You will have to change your poster then! (Don’t know what will become of the rapper, though.)
......FOR NOW...... [as the theme from Jaws begins]
(sarc.)
He’ll change his name to Jack Russell Terrier. Dis him and he’ll bust a cap in yo’ ankle.
Is that the leg bone of a liberal in Sam’s mouth?
LOL!
What a pretty little girl!
Lucy’s getting photobombed by the Dobie.
God, that’s so precious. Looks like a little terror.
It is a wonder you are alive enough to post on FR!
Here is my little bitty pit mix, now about 85 pounds of canine fury. We let a rabid skunk bite him hoping the rabies might calm him down a little.
It actually worked!
Okay feller, I call your bluff and raise you a blind pit.
My son without my knowledge told a friend we would watch his dog. I arrived home and sat in my plush executive reclining office chair only to look up and see a pit bull I had never seen before stroll into the room. Rather than crapping my pants like some here would do I went over and started petting him only to discover that he was blind.
Key thing to understand here is the lack of crapping pants like some here certainly would do.
Now you want to talk pits?
Here he is smiling.
That’s a “Homer Simpson” if I ever saw one. LOL!
Nothing better than a happy dog!
One of our min pins has diabetes and has lost her sight too. She gets along great. The only two things that bother her is that Wilford Brimley keeps yelling at her to eat her oatmeal.
The second is we will no longer let her drive the newer cars.
I take it Ben Cartwright and his ALPO can get bent. :^)
OISA, you really stepped in it this time. I usually agree with your posts, and you’re an active FReeper, but just as we cannot paint all people with the same brush, it is unwise to do the same with any breed of dog or other animals.
The dog-loving FReepers have pretty much shot your arguments down, and attempting to completely obliterate any specific breed of dog is silly, pointless, and probably impossible.
Each dog will live or die on the circumstances of its bad behavior, but killing the breed is throwing the baby out with the bath water.
Leave people’s beloved pets alone.
