A video of the unlikely scenario was tweeted by the page Now This News on Wednesday. The clip begins with the bear sneaking in through the front door and going towards the kitchen. However, the family’s dog, Harper, sprang into action and started barking. As the bear got startled and exited through the front door, the house owner quickly closed it. However, the bear came back and was seen standing outside the closed door.
“That’s one brave dog: When a nosy black bear managed to get inside a family’s kitchen in their upstate NY home, their dog Harper sprang into action to scare off the potential predator,” says the caption.
Watch the video below:
“Give Harper the entire jar of doggie treats!” commented a Twitter user. “Glad no harm came to either the bear, dog and homeowner,” said another. “Good dog,” wrote a third.
A video of a bear being rescued after it was stuck inside a car went viral recently as the way the police in Nevada in the United States released the animal amused netizens.
