A Tiktok video posted by @hernameisphiladelphia, also known as Birdie, has garnered more than a million views because of the bravery of one protective dog. Most dogs tend to act when they feel that their homes are threatened – this particular pooch though was more than willing to take on a wild creature four times his size.
His fearlessness is what impressed tons of people.
Unwanted guest
Birdie’s short video started with a black bear climbing up the support beam to the terrace of an apartment. Another bear was on the ground, waiting to follow. The lady taking the video tried to warn the bear that a dog lived there. But of course, the bear didn’t understand.
When the bear finally finished climbing, it stood on the terrace railing scoping the area. It seemed that the creature was looking for food and was planning its next move. As the unwanted visitor moved to the other side of the railing, a medium-sized dog bolted from out of nowhere.
Keep away
The guard dog was barking furiously and fearlessly went straight to the intruder. He was barking so loudly and looked so aggressive that the bear suddenly jumped in the air. The wild animal was shocked at the sudden appearance and the ferociousness of the dog. It was so scared that it visibly peed a bit.
The other bear, who was still on the ground, didn’t see what was happening but was startled by the loud barking. It could be seen in the video running away as soon as the dog made his appearance. The video ended soon after, but it is safe to assume that the bear climbed down quickly and ran away as well. There is a pretty good chance those two animals won’t be coming back soon.
The situation could have turned the other way around. But fortunately for the dog, the bears were still young and inexperienced. Their fear really got the best of them and they chose to run instead of fight.
