DOG VS BEAR
This viral video shows a terrier getting into a standoff with a huge bear. The dog's owner captured the incident on a ring camera. The video shows the terrier barking at the bear before being chased onto the porch of its Farmington, Connecticut home. The woman said the terrier, called Dixie, is about 20 pounds but often barks at anyone or anything that comes into the yard. The woman didn't know Dixie had been chased by the bear until watching the footage later.
