Protective Jack Russell Sends Bear Stumbling Back Into British Columbia Woods
As the old saying goes, it’s the size of the fight in the dog that counts. And one terrier in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, appears to be a fearless defender of his patch, no matter how big the intruder.

Other animals are just very lucky that JRT's are small. Just imagine they're big like a mastiff or a Husky with that unmatchable energy, supreme intelligence and toughness.

That dog could be the kings of dogs
My JRT was the fiercest, funniest, most loyal bad ass dog around. She survived a bear attack!! She survived being chased by a pack of coyotes. She survived being surrounded by an elk herd. She was my first and only dog and lived to be 16 1/2. Its been 15 months (but who's counting)and I miss her more than the people I've ost. Sorry if that sounds disrespectful but it's true. Can't wait to see her again.

Our family dog, Boo Boo (female jack Russell) was tough as nails too. We always joked that she’d fight a bear & never back down. Here’s proof! Lmao! RIP Boo Boo

Walking my Dad's two small dogs last year and 2 big dogs just showed up right behind me. The poodle mix cowered behind me, but the Jack Russell went forward underneath them like he was going to bite their package just like a honey badger)). He tries to charge pitbulls too. Has no idea he's 20 lbs
I got a rat terrier. They don’t know they are only 15lbs. In there minds they are 500lbs. It leads to some stupid situations for sure. But they are awesome dogs.

People can say what they want about the British but one thing I will say is that they knew how to breed amazing dogs and the best working dogs. Nearly all terrier breeds come from there in all shapes and sizes that can hunt and kill pretty much anything, then there’s hounds to sniff out prey and breeds designed to retrieve the prey. Bull Mastiffs as livestock guardians. Then you have the dogs like Border Collies for herding that are the most intelligent breed in the world that were bred there. If there’s something you need a dog to do, the British have made a breed for it that will do it better than anything else. I tend to buy American when it comes to most things but when it comes to dogs, I buy British.
This is the bravest dog I’ve ever seen She even turns around letting herself be vulnerable to bluff the bear she isn’t scared of him She protected her pack with all she had
That was a pretty funny drama to watch unfold. The dog was torn between barking at the bear and listening to the humans to come back to the house, while the bear was debating was almost... waiting for the dog to decide? The dog turned his back multiple times to the bear, which is really not the brightest thing for anything to do, but the bear also didn't leave or bite him when he did. LOL! I wouldn't have expected an encounter like this to go this way. That slip at the end by the bear was pretty funny too.

The jrt was telegraphing how little he feared the bear. That bear was probably thinking “its just a small dog, why do i hear boss music?”
He's just doing his job! Protecting his family pack! 🙂 Nuff said!.
the dog periodically takes a break from barking and sniffs around, even turns around and totally appears to pause his attention on the bear
Did this lil dude really punk a bear 😅
I once saw my Jack Russell Terrier face a family of 4 Fox head on like a beast possessed. My Wife was scared and said "Go help him honey!" I replied "Help him or the Fox?" 😂 PS my boy was fine, they scattered away when he gave chase into the tree line and I scoped him up before anything happened. Jacks are fearless pups.
Lucky, I've seen a bear tear a bigger dogs head off before. The kids would have been permanently traumatized.

Ätzende Familie. Warum ruft niemand den Hund zurück?? Wenn jemandem was passiert hoffentlich euch und nicht dem armen Hund. Der Bär wäre unschuldig und der Hund kann nichts dafür, daß er seinem Trieb nach geht und keine Regeln bekommt.
Bears are hardware ready but don't have necessary SW update to resolve this glitch in matrix.
*Fun fact* Animals with front facing eyes, i.e predators don't know their own size. We look at a fellow human 10 feet away and if we hold our hands in front of our faces we can measure that person with our thumb and forefinger as being 3 inches tall. Of course we understand that they are not actually 3 inches tall, they are foreshortened. As humans we understand perspective... animals don't. So your small dog sees a bear that is - in his vision - very small.. In his own mind he is BIG and the bear is small. The bear had absolutely no idea how big your dog was. It's a hard concept to understand when this level of cognition is so natural for us, but to our four legged friends it's a minefield. This is why dogs will dip their heads to eachother a few times and then jump in unison, they do this to see who is the biggest

I dont think you understand how animal body language and perception of size relative to self works. This terrier telegraphed how little he was scared, meaning the bear was unsure. When the terrier goes on the offensive, the bear can tell if its bigger or smaller and flees because of the tenacity of the attack
what the
0/10 filming skills.
Wee dogs with the heart of a lion. Lol
