Chihuahua Foils Armed Robbery
Furious Yipping Chases Robbers Out Of Smoke Shop


Posted: 11:03 am EDT July 19, 2011Updated: 1:10 pm EDT July 19, 2011
A plucky chihuahua went toe-to-toe with a pair of shotgun-wielding robbers trying to rob a California smoke shop -- yipping furiously and chasing them out of the store.

Wearing black hooded jackets and armed with a rifle, the two thieves burst into a tobacco store in Altadena near Los Angeles demanding money, according to USA Today.

However, when the owner began handing over cash from the till, his tiny pet started barking frenetically.

The diminutive dog named Paco refused to be intimidated, even when one of the robbers pointed the barrel of his weapon at him, eventually chasing the men out of the shop and down the street, USA Today reported.

I read this to Waban Equay and she is now insufferable.

I've been told that the little ones are much more aggressive and territorial than larger dogs, and I can believe it.

My little gal (all 6 lbs.) is very fussy when people come to the door (and in the house!) even around people she has known from puppyhood. ::shakes head:: And yes, she means every bark and yip. [g]

It really does seem like a scene from a movie, doesn't it? ;)
