Paco the Chihuahua is loyal, caring, and knows no fear when confronting armed robbers. "I'm going to put a cape on him I think," said owner Erik Knight.
Paco has been devoted to Knight for about five years. But when armed robbers burst into his Altadena shop, he gave a new meaning to the term "man's best friend." Paco chased them out of his business and across the street, nipping at their ankles the whole time.

"When I saw them pointing a gun at Paco, it just kind of sent a chill up my back," said Knight. It's no wonder Paco was protecting his home. He's become somewhat of a neighbourhood mascot, walking business to business every day to visit his friends.
Whether Paco's daytime strolls are to meet and greet or to protect, he's one community member the neighbourhood can't live without. "He was rescued, so I suggest everybody rescue a dog from the pound," said Knight. "You never know when you're going to need him."
