Chihuahua defends girl from pit bull

A little girl is badly scarred and traumatized after a viscous pit bull attack. Fortunately, a pint-sized hero stepped in to defend her, or it could have been worse. Jon Woodward has the surprising story of a Chihuahua named "Honey".

believed that they were big tough dogs. I never was a fan, but this is a great story and it gives me more respect for those feisty like dogs.

So sad that this girl had to go through the trauma of being attacked by a dog, but at least she hasn't learned to fear all dogs....love the way she just held onto the chihuahua.

Thanks.

Chihuahua's faces have always reminded me of bats. But then I like both. To me they're all beautiful.
