Attack Chihuahuas

A police officer in Fremont, CA was attacked by a pack of vicious chihuahuas while making an arrest. He was taken to the hospital, treated for ankle-bites, and released.

It's tough out there!

A Mexican once told me (in unnecessary detail) about how packs of chihuahuas can bring down a cow by attacking the feet in such numbers and ferocity that they eventually sever the tendons and collapse the beast, beginning to eat before bothering to kill their victim. Land piranas.

In my animal control days I once had to clean out an abandoned house where an old lady had holed up and let her chihuahua mixes get totally out of control. There were over sixty of the beasts and at least 90% of them bit me and a different 90% shat on me. We adopted one out, but the lady (who lived in the country) brought the beast back by the scruff of its neck. It had killed ALL her chickens. Ai! Nada chihuahua!!

You just know that his fellow officers are never going to let him forget this incident. Imagine the "K-9 unit"jokes, for one thing.
