Sorry to keep commenting on this, but this is a sore subject with me.
You could have been horribly mauled & the chihuahua killed by this dog.
About 3 years ago, a dog bit my husband, he's a roofer & was measuring
some guy's roof.
The dog charged out & bit him in the leg. Animal Control did nothing,
home owner did nothing.
Finally the police made this man keep this dog tied up at his house to
be sure the dog didn't have rabies. We learned the guy had little kids
and the dog had bitten a kid pryor to biting Bill.
We later learned the dog bit another kid. NOTHING happened. The same
biting dog is still there. How exasperating is that??!!

And AC did nothing with the dogs? Here in my country, we have a BAD
dog law obviously yours doesn't??I would be carrying something to
protect myself and my 'pups'. I hope you are feeling better. What a
traumatic experience!

*Subject:* [Chihuahuas] My white chi and I were attacked by a dog
I was walking my chi on my road in my neighborhood and was turning
around to go home and saw a man and 3 dogs approaching. He seemed to
be having trouble holding them back, so I walked up someones long
driveway to stand by their garage door. This would give him the
entire road and he could pass. Well, he had to overweight labs and
one hound mix, like a tri color coonhound. when they got to the end
of the drive it twirled and slipped its collar and came right for
Maggie. I scooped her up and then my nightmare began. I was bitten
on the back/side( it was hanging there. And when I shook him off it
bit my arm that was wrapped around Maggie. I was screaming for help
and the man did nothing. I yelled my loudest and meanest when he was
springing for my face. He stopped for a second and I made my escape
to a nieghbors house and rung the bell sobbing and told them to call
my husband to come get me. I went to the hospital and animal control
came and the deputy sheriffs. The next day I talked to a neighbor
about it and found out she had the exact same scenero happen to her
and her white cockapoo a week earlier only it didn't bite her. She
was lucky. I will never go without protection now. The animal
control and the sheriff said to carry and gun and use it. I would not
be in trouble if I did. The bottom line was that I was going to same
my dog over my own life. And I did save both of us, battered,
bruised, torn,swollen and now afraid of my own street.
