You hear such sad news from China about pets. This one has a happy ending for the puppy.

From CNN.com:
BEIJING, China (Reuters) -- A Chinese man bit to death a fierce dog that was savaging his beloved puppy.

Awakened by the puppy's yelps, a villager named Geng first tried to chase the dog away by hurling watermelons at it, a local newspaper reported on Wednesday.

The farmer then threw himself on the dog, clamping his teeth around its neck and eventually killing it.

"The two were rolling around on the ground and fighting for nearly 10 minutes," the Yanzhao Cosmopolitan News in the northern province of Hebei said.

Geng suffered deep cuts to his arms and was treated in hospital. The puppy survived.
