California family dog confronts black bear intruder with a tracker collar
A dutiful dog harnessed courage beyond his years to fend off a marauding bear that broke into a California home while his owner slept soundly through the caught-on-camera encounter. The 17-year-old dog named Doodle was in for the fright of his life as he watched the beast break through the screen door.
Doodle’s owner, Zoe Cadman, was asleep while the bear roamed around her Monrovia home for around 20 minutes over the weekend, she said.Comptroller and mayoral candidate Lander released after chaotic arrest by ICE at Federal Plaza in NYC Teacher's husband stands by her as she faces new accusations of grooming student, having sex with him 45 timesDoodle, determined to protect his domain, shuffled over to the broken door as the bear poked its head inside. The ursine invader reached out and clawed at Doodle, whose long life surely flashed before his eyes as he evaded the swipe and barked in retaliation. Both animals, apparently curious about the other, locked eyes for a moment before almost touching noses. Doodle didn’t appreciate the bear’s investigation and yipped again before scampering away.Cadman eventually stirred when she noticed a faint light shining from her kitchen. The famished bear somehow opened her refrigerator and briefly rifled through it before eventually leaving the home as if nothing had ever happened — save for the shattered doorway and frazzled pup. Home security footage showed the massive bear, which appeared to be wearing some type of collar, stalking through the home while it poked around. It wasn’t immediately clear if the bear belonged to someone or was being tracked, but neighbors in the area “It’s part of living up here. We’re really close to the mountains and they were here first. But luckily, knock on wood, they’ve all been really friendly coming through here,” Austin Hart, who lives in the area, told the outlet. Man’s best friend will often push themselves to the brink to protect their owners, even at their own expense.Earlier this year, another fearless dog named Duke went toe-to-toe with a pack of coyotes for almost an hour in a Los Angeles neighborhood. Homeowners living nearby spotted the pooch still wandering around days later and called for him to be brought to a shelter, where he was later adopted after Comptroller and mayoral candidate Lander released after chaotic arrest by ICE at Federal Plaza in NYC Teacher's husband stands by her as she faces new accusations of grooming student, having sex with him 45 timesZohran Mamdani has barely ever had a job, with just 3 years in the workforce — including his 'rap career' and a gig for his momKelsey Grammer, 70, is expecting baby No. 8 with pregnant wife Kayte Walsh: reportJenna Bush Hager Finally Debuts “Strange” New Bob Haircut On ‘Today’: “I Feel A Little Embarrassed” ‘The View’ Quickly Cuts To Commercial As Javier Bardem Speaks Out Against Attacks On Gaza: “I Believe It’s A Genocide” Jimmy Kimmel Roasts President Trump And Melania Trump’s “Date Night” To See ‘Les Misérable’: They “Realized They Have To Sit Next To Each Other For Three Hours”Neighbors said the bear was a frequent visitor around the area.
