A Chihuahua named Buddy has reportedly been ordered to stand trial in the UK after he was collared for nipping an Avon lady — and the puny pup may face the death penalty if convicted.
Buddy initially raced out to greet Louise Elliff, 49, when she called to collect a catalog on her rounds in Crook, County Durhan, in November — but then chased her around the garden and snapped at her legs, the Sun reported.
“The dog came booming out and kept biting round my legs. The dog was chasing me, nipping my legs and it drew blood,” said Elliff.
“I could not move quickly enough. It was chasing round and round me in circles. The 13-inch-tall pooch was getting more and more irate, I was absolutely petrified,” she continued, according to the Sun.
