Animal cruelty laws should be tightened to really make people think of consequences before injuring an animal.
This will be a felony animal cruelty conviction. That's at least a five year prison sentence in most states.
One may or may not agree with trumps administration however he did do one good thing in 4 years… he made animal abuse a felony
Be fair. The teen broke in and the dog attacked him, the teen was defending himself. Obviously he shouldn’t need to be defending himself because he shouldn’t be there.
Also deterrents DONT make people think of the consequences, if they did people wouldn’t have committed crimes for ages. Also people have studied this, it’s true.
Agreed, they did 5 or 6 years ago make animal cruelty a potential federal felony, its a small start.
Do you feel the same about humans hurting humans? Just wondering.
Frankly, I don't trust anyone who doesn't like dogs. They are loving, loyal, brave and they only want to love and be loved in return. That is literally all they want.
i particularly dont trust men who love cats more than dogs. nothing good can come from that.
yes always judge people by how they treat their pets
Trump hates dogs. First president to not have a dog in the White House.
Know why he hates them? Because every dog hated him since he was a tiny boy. They'd growl at him.
Trust dogs!!
Me too and also if they do not like animals in general. All animals have the ability to see into a person's soul. They just have an instinct about people, which we should always trust.
Y’all are weird..
He survived a severed jugular. His heart stopped, and he is still here! That is the absolute goodest boy ever!!
This is why dogs need to be outlawed! Guns and dogs are just too dangerous for common people to own.
This truly was a miracle.
Panch deserves all the Glory 💯👍So grateful the family knew how to tend to his wounds and went to vet. Ive seen many panic and cry but do nothing cuz too traumitized💔
Teen should be in jail as adult trying to rob a house like that
Prison for life. People who do this can never be reformed or redeemed.
No. He can be rehabilitated
@@M_SC
Perhaps you would like to take that on personally???
@@kevin6293 Agree with you completely! I’m more than tired of animals and people getting hurt or worse by people that can not be rehabilitated. Anyone doubting, look at statistics or talk with someone in law enforcement. Poncho was outstanding in his actions! Thank goodness Vet and staff able to save him. He now walks with limp and other injuries that will bother him the rest of his life. From Diane
@@1929modelagirlThat's not an answer or a refutation to what he said. It's the type of answer you'd expect from a child in kindergarten.
Being a 50+ year old man, I cannot remember when I last cried, but my eyes are watery now.
We do not deserve them ❤❤❤
By the Grace of God
Dogs will always have my soft spot, they are truly a man’s best friend❤️❤️I want to rescue all the pit bulls I can before I leave this world
@@lucaswedderburn I took that phrase "man's best friend" lightly until I met my best dog. They deserve our care, love and protection
All animals are special.
❤
It’s good to see a dog that was adopted 8 years ago is still in his home and obviously loves his family.❤
I rescued my Rottweiler/Labrador/Beauceron 11 years ago and we still have her.
Yes, which means he’s not a young pup. Even more heroic when you consider his age. ❤
Thank God for Pancho surviving and recovering that horrible attack! He truly is blessed and protected and definitely is someone to be proud of
You mean thank the good people at the shelter who worked tirelessly to save him, what about THEM? What did god do? Did god stop the bleeding with towels? Did god perform the life saving surgery? Ohh, I see now, it's the person who resuscitated him after his heart stopped!! You are under the delusion that that person is a god!! You probably should get some psychiatric help.
@@bigtankmctokery543Dam, child. Who 💩 in your oatmeal?
Those looking to be offended will NEVER allow themselves to be disappointed.
@@patthenry3568Loved your comment.😂
You can't put a price on what our pets do for us every day!!! ❤
Totally agree 💯👍
EVERYDAY!!!
Who's a good boy? PONCHO is!!
The goodest boy!!❤
No emergency vet access in abq?? Shameful. Hope attacker is prosecuted
I thought the same thing! How pathetic, there are only a half a million people who live in the area. I lived there for 14 years and I know they have emergency vets.
@@paanne1013 I was wondering why they didn’t take the dog to the emergency vet, but it could’ve been a financial problem.
@@WisepatiThey DROVE for HOURS to Find one that was open and could Not! They Love Poncho and drove Immediately to help him! Thank goodness this Brave, Good boy made it! He deserves all of the steaks and treats for the rest of his life! God Bless Poncho! 🥹❤️🩹🙏❤️🐶❤️
Nationwide there is a vet shortage in USA.
@@schmittyconstanz yeah because there are only 13 vet colleges in usa and most of our vets got their degree overseas somewhere.
This is why I prefer dog's and animals more than people.Poncho a true super hero.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
There are lots of people who save people and animals
Same
Our fur babies are the best!!!
God gave us dogs to help us understand His unconditional love.
Precious baby!! Hero!
Agree
One of the most beautiful creature God's made to help human while on earth.
Halellujah. Thank you Lord Jesus
❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for saving Poncho's life after his heart stopped, good vet people!!!
This punk needs to be locked up forever! Poncho poor boy should never went through this. Justice for this poor boy, very lucky he lived.💔❤🐾❤
Yes and it could of been the family &this teen does need locked up forever
If it was up to me he would get a more permanent punishment than that.
This is all circumstantial. This report contains a lot of "may haves" and "potentials". All we know is that the boy was on their property. We don't know the size of the propety. He may have just been cutting through as a short cut, or not realised it was their property. A lot of people carry weapons on them, it doesn't make them bad people. If you're alone and you get attacked by a dog that won't back off, it's kill or be killed. It doesn't say anything about the boy trying to get into the house.
A dogs love has no bounds . They are family.
Thank you Espanola Humane for coming thru for Pancho and his family! Pancho is a legend! ❤❤❤
A true hero. You are the luckiest family in the world to have Pancho.
I can't believe I'm in tears over this news snippet but I'm so glad that Poncho the goodest boy is alive and well.
Enjoy those ribeyes, pancho! VERY GOOD BOY!
What a brave boy 🥺🥺 hope he gets well soon
What a brave loving PITBULL MIX!!!! (since that particular breed is always singled out when something bad happens, I wanted to underline it here)
Pibbles & mixes are the BEST dogs.
I did Pibble rescue, and without exception, regardless of how much abuse they had received, they trusted us and most people still.
I would think that any dog or cat for that matter, would give their lives for their families.
@@1929modelagirl My cat rushed a bear to save me!
@@annjamieson6544
Brave heart in a small package❤️🐈
its a putbull! i know they are fiercely loyal! we dont deserve our dogs!!! unconditional! im in tears! 😭 protect Poncho!!!
Heelers are also incredibly loyal! I have a Queensland/shepherd/pitbull mix that is also a 9 year old rescue and i am BAWLING! Best dog I’ve ever had the pleasure of spending my life with
So happy poncho made it, sweet boy!
So glad he is gonna be ok! What a heroic pup 🐶!
Poncho is a braver soul than that teenager who entered their home and assaulted Poncho with a deadly weapon. Just think about what would have happened to the family if their best buddy hadn't been there. Right on Poncho!
We don't deserve dogs. They are angels on earth!
The phrase Man's Best Friend is one of the truest statements.
Shout out to the Española Humane Shelter❤❤❤ Good job Poncho you are THE BEST🎉
I would think his owners are going to have a very large vet bill, hoping they have some sort of fund started to help pay for it all. Good Boy Pancho!
True little hero!
I’m so happy I found this video. I am a dog lover, so naturally I click on stories about them. This time, I got a bonus - this story is from KOB!!!
I was born in Albuquerque. In the early 1960s, I got to be part of a friend’s birthday party on a children’s TV show called the K Circle B Ranch. I wondered over the 60 years since whether that TV station was still on the air.
My dad was stationed at Kirtland AFB. Not long after the Cuban Missile Crisis, we moved to Ohio and Wright-Patterson AFB. I haven’t been back to Albuquerque since then.
I have happy memories of picnics in the Sandía Mountains, monsoon storms, then finding a large puddle full of polywogs. We visited White Sands national park, Carlsbad Caverns, and El Paso.
I returned to the desert southwest, but ended up in Tucson and the Sonoran Desert.🌵
I am looking forward to seeing stories about Albuquerque from your station! Gracias.
My dad was stationed at Sandia Army Base from 1968 through January of '70. I remember White Fence Farm Chicken. They had two or three locations. It was the best chicken I've ever had.
@@IndianOutlaw1870 I was born in the Sandía Army Hospital! I guess the USAF didn’t have a hospital, so we used the one on the Army base.
Thank goodness for our fur babies!!! Poncho is an amazing reminder of the unconditional love they have for their humans. Prayers for a speedy recovery for this lil hero!
The best breed of pet is adopted.
He's not just a good boy. He's the best boy.
Good job Pancho.
What an amazing dog!! He means everything to his family, and his family means everything to him. That little SH is way past the whole juvenile thing. Should be charged as an adult, but sadly won’t get any jail time, or much of anything for this. Justice for animals too!!🤬
Arthur Clarke wrote a great scifi book "Childhood's End". Aliens take over the Earth. But they have only 2 laws for us: No war. No cruelty to animals. Weird ending, highly recommend.
@@veramae4098 Sounds like an excellent idea. Both the aliens and what we are required to do. Thank you for letting me know about that book. I’m going to be reading that.
Dogs are wonderful... brave Pancho deserves all the love in the world bless him. So glad he has recovered. ❤❤❤❤
There just is not enough words to describe how beautiful and loved this fur-baby is ❤❤❤❤❤
Hoping Pancho receives extra & special treats, forevermore…💙🐾🐾💙

I think its sad and disgusting that so many beautiful innocent helpless precious loving ❤, LOYAL TO THE VERY END!!! 100% devoted and unconditionally loving pets are abandoned in kill shelters every hour 💔. Humans are no where near as humane and devoted as dogs are!!!!! Dogs are better than humans!!!!! I PRAY poncho's family will love and PROTECT HIM till the very end 🙏 ❤ 😊, MAY ALMIGHTY GOD THE FATHER AND CREATOR Bless poncho with a full recovery and a very happy healthy life full of love, cuddles, steaks,protection from his family and devotion from his family risking their life to save him if he ever needed it
Poncho you’re a brave boy! Thank you all for saving his life! X❤❤❤
Poncho - 'simply the best'! Get well soon brave boyx
The best boy ever 🐾🐶👏💜💜💜💜✌️🇮🇪
Hi Pancho, good job! Your the best
You're 😂
Brave boy Poncho! Bless you, sweetheart!! ❤❤ To the DA: you NEED to charge that asinine 16 year old as an adult for attempted murder - NOT simple animal cruelty.
Sweet dog! I'm so very happy that he is on the road to recovery.
There is nothing like a dog on the planet
I'm grateful that Poncho survived. Unfortunately my Boxer baby had given his life for his Momma when a dog attacked me. I still have scars from the stitches on my right hand and every day I see them I'm reminded of his love and sacrifice.😢
❤❤❤❤
What a terrific story! What a sad world we live in.
Glad that he survive.. God Bless..
Thank you soooo much to the people tgat saved this Dogs life . God sees everything .
Now why is it when a Pit Bull attacks someone, the headline blasts the breed name, but when a Pit Bull SAVES a family, it barely gets a brief mention in the story? This Pittie mix is the goodest boy ever!!
Totally agree!!!
I ❤ 🐶
God bless Pancho--a true hero❤
a Man hath No Greater Love and loyalty for His Family Than a pitbull mix.💯
Amazing he survived! 😢 thank Dog! 😊
Vet tech is a hero
Amen 🙏 God bless that 😇 for not giving up on him❗️
He has me heart. Luv ya too much.❤
dogs and cats are little angels sent to heal us of all kinds of things... from PTSD. to depression 💕
I have a Heeler/Pit mix 😮
Hoping she grows up to be a hero like Poncho❤
Not all heroes are wearing caps but four legged and furry coat .Society is in continuous danger with teenagers like that but we are safe with heroes like "Poncho" . God Bless Pancho ,his parents and all vet staff that made all possible to save Pancho's life. 🐶🐾🐾❤🙏
That dog has ❤ written all over its face! 💕😇
The best boy! How Brave & Fearless
I hope his family loves him because he is a keeper.
Of course they do. Did you look at the photo! Geez
What an absolutely wonderful story about a magnificent dog🥰
That's why pities are the best dog breed in the world. I love him. I always hatell people people. Think they're so evil. They are not their loyal loving puppies that won't do anything to protect their family.❤❤❤❤
They maul too many elderly and children
Dog...God! Makes complete sense! Thank you God for serving mankind thru the auspices of our beautiful canine souls!🕊kj😊
GOD'S LOVE ❤GRACE🕊AND MERCY🤲 BE UPON PANCHO 🐾 IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME AMEN AND AMEN 🙏 ✝️ 🕊
A very good boy
Whata awesome boy!!! Get well soon sir❤❤❤
Dogs have great intuition ❤
Dogs are not juzt loyal but more brave than most people. Thanks for spoiling this lovely dog.
May God bless the family and the dog.
I was horrified seeing that stab wound on his neck. Justice for Poncho. I'm so glad he survived. He deserves all the love. ❤🥺 Poor baby, he has a hard time standing too. Looks like he's an older dog. Live long and stay healthy Poncho. 🙏 Animals are too good for this Earth.
Justice for animal abuse means never celebrating a family that uses a loving animal as a firewall, defense mechanism, or fighter on behalf of people problems. My angle on this report is, evil, punishable by law, and dark triad personality news.
And Pancho dosen't even have any balls. But still showed bravery, courage and loyalty in saving his family.
🤣🤘
Give this dog a Purina Award!
Omg and he’s an old boy too baby❤❤❤
Thank you for putting this on.
Dogs are just the best thing ever! Such a gift ❤
A family's best friend!!
PONCHO THE PITBULL IS THE HERO. Thank you, poncho, you give your life to save your family who saved you. This is Love...God's greatest creation for humans who don't deserve to have such a love but they give us anyways. Love you, PONCHO.❤❤❤. From indonesia
My heart is breaking with GREAT GRATITUDE to Poncho! I'm smiling AND crying at the same time. Go Poncho!
Oh my goodness! Thank God Poncho is alive and making a recovery. This poor sweet boy, who is very obviously a hero.
I personally believe there needs to be more serious consequences for animal cruelty, or in this case you could actually say it’s attempted murder, which I think is even worse, if that’s possible than animal cruelty. The offender also should be charged with any other charge that police can charge him with, or the laws definitely need to be changed, allowing harsher penalties for these types of crimes. After all, this offender had a knife and was trying to enter, or did enter somebody else’s home. That seems to be intent I would say. Even if he’s 16, doesn’t matter. A 16 year old KNOWS that you do not get a knife, break into somebody else’s home and then of course attempt to kill the homeowner’s dog. Unbelievable really.
Brilliant job Poncho. I’m sure you will be spoilt rotten forever and very deservedly so.
Sending love and prayers from Australia♥️
Amazing! Anyone who doesn't love dogs is someone to beware of!!
God bless this good brave boy!!! ❤❤❤
He truly is a hero of the highest caliber. What a brave, sweet boy!
Thank you God for creating animals for us, You knew how much we would need them and how much joy they bring us. Please bless and protect them by your mighty hand. In Jesus Name, Amen!!!!
This story brought tears to my eyes 😢. I want a dog so bad and this story is a clear sign. What an amazing dog friend. What an amazing family to drive far and wide to then save his life 💜. What an amazing story 🥰
hope Poncho gets help for his back leg! xo True Hero! xo
I love Pancho too now! I hope Pancho makes a full recovery!
Good doggoh!!!
What would a world be like without dogs? I dont ever want to know!
Good the attacker was caught! So glad you survived this Poncho. 🐾💕❤️
Just gorgeous he deserves the best
God bless that wonderful 😇Vet technician, for never giving up on him❗️
Omaha Steak, God bless your heart💞 for supporting, that wonderful Hero🐕, family, and his community🇺🇲
Good boy, God saved him❤❤❤❤
The goodest boy. I wonder if he has stories of going to heaven when he had his near death experience.
Love Pitties!!! Love Poncho!
What a Great Dog! Amazing dog. Had that Punk kid tried it on my Pit-Corso! He's 6-years old and 110lbs. Of pure Muscle. What a great dog Pancho you are! Dogs are Family! No one messes with Another person's family!
What a good boy Pancho is, a real Hero.
Good boy, treats forever!
That steak companies stock just went up ..there are. O words, this dog has a beautiful soul…
