Another puppy saves the day. This time a 15 pound cocker spaniel-poodle mix chased off a mother bear and her two cubs after they wandered into his yard in Wycoff, N.J. Pawlee was out in his yard attending to his morning business when the bears intruded. Wrong move bears! Pawlee went ballistic alerting his humans who came out to see what was going on. The bears took the hint and high-tailed it out of there. Northern New Jersey seems to breed feisty pets: In 2006, a tabby cat named Jack chased a bear up a tree in his West Milford yard. Either NJ has super brave pets or chicken bears. Once a squirrel came in our yard and Snickers chased it away.
