Pet Chihuaha Saves Toddler From Roaming Pit Bulls

A Richmond chihuahua stepped in front of a pit bull that had wandered into a Richmond apartment, saving a 4 year old boy. Dog attacks happen all the time - and we hear about them all the time. This is the flip side of that story - a dog coming to the rescue of its family. According to reports, the dog stepped between a pit bull and the 4 year old boy it was eyeing. The pit bull grabbed the chihuahua (named Manchas), who was later found dead.
