Heroic Pit bull helps kidnap victim escape

Dogs know right from wrong, and if you need proof that when it comes to bad behavior, the party on the wrong end of the leash is getting the blame, check this out: a New Mexico man trapped a woman in his home and threatened to kill her, and when he ordered his dog to bite her, it bit him instead, allowing the woman to get away.

Las Cruces man Gabriel Garcia is reported to have trapped a woman in his home, made sexual advances toward her, dragged her around by her hair, and threatened to end her life.

He then threw her down the stairs and ordered his nine-month-old pit bull puppy to bite her. It clamped down on him instead, giving the terrified woman the opportunity to escape.

Garcia was arrested and jailed for kidnapping, assault and criminal sexual contact, and the hero pup was taken in by animal control. Sadly, the abusive man was bonded out, and after the dog’s 10-day quarantine was up, it was returned to him.

Well done that dog! Such a pity though that it had to be returned to the owner, as who knows how he will treat it now, but apparently "he has a right to have his property returned. Animals in New Mexico are considered personal property.”
