The victims, 26-year-old Emily Panuco and her 5-year-old son, who live in Parker, Arizona, were visiting her mother’s residence around 3:30 p.m. to see a litter of several-week-old puppies, according to a SBCSD news release.
During the investigation, deputies learned that Panuco’s son approached a cardboard board box near the front door of the residence that the puppies were in when he was attacked by three adult dogs.
“Panuco intervened in an effort to protect her son and was also attacked,” i
The 26-year-old suffered multiple wounds during the attack and, despite life-saving measures, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Her son also sustained two severe wounds during the attack and was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment. He was later released, though his condition was not immediately available.
Authorities did not provide any information on the breed of the three animals..

Let me guess. Chihuahuas?
“””Let me guess. Chihuahuas?”””
I was going to guess Cocker Spaniels
In before the “it’s not the breed, it’s the owner” stupidity.
Golden retrievers? Shi tzu? Toy poodle?
We’ll have to guess since the Sheriff’s Department there didn’t provide a description of the animals for some reason...

Wonder if dogfighting is an issue in that locale...
Mama dog thought she was defending her puppies I guess. Poor human family losing a mother and daughter that way.
It is sad but those puppies should be euthanized as well. Innocents with bad genes.
“””Mama dog thought she was defending her puppies I guess”””
Three Adult Dogs per the report
“During the investigation, deputies learned that Panuco’s son approached a cardboard board box near the front door of the residence that the puppies were in when he was attacked by three adult dogs.”
Three blind mice......
Obviously not goldendoodles.
Helen Thomas?
Mama dog goes after the boy because of the puppies; the other dogs join in.
Big River is a census designated area that is on the. West Bank of the Colorado River. Desert area , considered within Indian land. Population about 1,000.
My guess, dogs are used as alarms, and crime deterrents. Maybe dogfighting(don’t know).
Dangerous dog country. Tough town. Be careful out there. sad.
“He was released although his immediate condition was not available”
Let me guess: he is alive and able to walk and his injuries are not threatening his life. That is his immediate condition. Does it seem like reporters are just going through the motions? A child, a mother, puppies, adult dogs, Arizona, Southern California. This is all very vague information. “Oh, did you hear about the lady down the street her daughter came from Arizona and her kid was there and he got attacked by 3 dogs and she tried to protect him and she got killed! Yeah the dogs killed her! 3 of them. I don’t know what kind of dogs. I don’t know nothing else about it. She’s dead. That’s it. How should I know? Quit asking stupid questions.”
Three Adult Dogs per the report
Maybe it was a male dog in a throuple with two bitches.
Until the dog owners of these breeds start goin to jail for 25 years and lose everything when this happens...it will keep happening.
did you guys read?
they were of a bigger breed, so must be golden retrievers.
Hey, if Heather can have two mommies, these puppies might very well have three.
So, she was going to pick out a Pit Bull puppy, only to be killed by the parents of the puppy. Some tragic irony. That the puppies were from her own mother, even worse. Will grandma have to raise the grandson? What a waste. Of course, pit bulls are the sweetest dogs, and would never hurt anyone. Until they do.
We’ll have to guess since the Sheriff’s Department there didn’t provide a description of the animals for some reason...

Universal official silence applies for pit bulls and Jihadis.
