A Northern California woman says her Chihuahua named Manchas died while protecting her children from two pit bulls that got into her apartment. Mayda Estrella, of Richmond, says Manchas jumped in between the pit bulls and her 4-year-old son as they were about to attack the kids. One pit bull grabbed the Chihuahua with its jaws and carried it away. Contra Costa County animal services officials say Manchas was killed and the pit bulls are now in custody. The owner of the pit bulls says they had escaped from their yard by chewing through a fence. Estrella says her front door was open when the dogs came in. When she saw the dogs, she ran into a bedroom with her other child, a newborn baby. The owner of the pit bulls won’t face criminal charges, according to officials.
