San Diego Man Charged With Choking Puppy

David Hale Warner, 50, is facing charges that he choked his Labrador retriever puppy named Coco after the dog bit his girlfriend. Coco later died.

Coco was just 10 weeks old when the dog bite his girlfriend on the nose — showing how intuitive dogs can be.

Warner brought the dog into a clinic and said that the dog could not walk and was having trouble breathing. That effort could save Warner from jail time. He claims that he pinned the dog for 20 seconds after the bite.

He faces three years in prison and a $20,000 fine if he’s convicted.

If convicted, the court may want to put him in the same cell with John Fleet.
