November 4, 2004 -- The hero pooch who saved his ex-model owner from a vicious, knife-wielding would-be rapist in Central Park was honored yesterday, and rewarded with a medal and a gigantic stuffed toy bone.

The gutsy pup took a chunk out of accused rapist Tito Rodriguez, 32, during the attack, say cops. DNA samples from some of Rodriguez's blood helped identify the Bronx resident when he was picked up a few days later on another sex-crime charge.

Would have been better if she put two in his chest and one in his head. After the dog bit him.

I hope he took an important chunk out of the rapist, maybe even an impotent (in the future) chunk.

If she had, another crime a few days later wouldn't have happened.

If she would have been carrying, she would be on the way to the state female license plate factory at Bedford.

Suppose she put two in his chest, threw the (unregistered) gun down, and kept calmly walking on as if nothing had happened. Is it likely she would have been caught and convicted of weapons charges?

In any case she needs to rethink walking in Central Park and living in NYC.

If I was a big shepherd mix, and my owner did the above to me, it wouldn't be the rapist I'd bite.

Lord knows that I would rather be unarmed and dead rather than violate an illegal law.

Stick to yer guns whistle.
