My 2nd dog story in 24 hours.

Now see this woman is a FReeper. How do I know? Only a FReeper would chase a Mama bear who was chasing her dog.

I would have done the same thing. That dog can out run the bear, thing is can the bear out run the dog's mom?

Some FReepers might be disappointed that the dog lived.

thing is can the bear out run the dog's mom?

Easily. I have encountered 2 black bears running through the woods, they are fast.

But how I really know, I clocked one at a little over 40 MPH that was running beside my car.

I would have chased the bear too. The difference is, I’m always armed. Had it come down to it, it would have been a very bad day for the bear.

Dog should have been on a leash, for its own protection, but I guess we don’t use those so much anymore.

Both the dog and that lady are stupid: a mother bear with cubs? Last thing on Earth anyone should mess with.

I hope Zeus appreciates her devotion.

"Jacobson came around 50 feet away from the bear when reality hit. She abruptly turned and high-tailed it home without her dog."

When danger reared it's ugly head,
She bravely turned her tail and fled.

I joke. I kid. In a similar situation, I would've said, "Damn. I'm gonna miss Zeus. He was a good dog."

Flip flops are a nice touch.

I thought woman preferred bears over men!

“I would have done the same thing.”

Agree, it’s not like she was trying to get a selfie. I suspect the dog appreciates her effort.

Woman chasing bear ........ not smart!!

I grew up in the Sierra Nevadas. Bears were a part of life. Maybe I was dumb but the best way to get rid of bears sneaking around was to scream and yell, make a racket and chase them. They were pretty timid brown bears and would run away. Never had one stop and turn around. Fire crackers were good too.

Luckily the bear had eaten some tourists earlier down the road when it came across these folks....
