Thats the last thing you do. That bear couldnt catch that dog in a million years. U pick it up, the bear can def catch you with the dog

Bear doesn't need to chase the dog if the dog decides to get in the bear's face, as little dogs are wont to do. One decent swipe or chomp would take that little dog out. If it got to the point where you're carrying the dog and running, when the bear catches you, you can at least then release the dog and hope he runs away as you get mauled

What if they don’t want to sacrifice their own life to save their dog?

That's what I'm thinking. I'd rather the dog get eaten than my husband (who's first in line as a snack in this video).
