There’s nothing we wouldn’t do for our beloved furry friends, even if it means putting ourselves in danger. Kaleb Benham from Nevada County, California was at home the day just before Thanksgiving when he saw something outside of the window that made his heart drop into his stomach.
Kaleb’s 90-pound rescue dog Buddy was fighting for his life as a massive bear was “dragging him by his head.” At that point, “the only thing I could think of was ‘save my baby,'” Benham told CBS News, so he did what he had to do. He ran down there, “plowed into the bear, tackled it, and grabbed it by the throat and started hitting it in the face and the eye until it let go.”
Fortunately, Buddy survived the grueling attack by a whisker, and was rushed to the hospital. Meanwhile, the bear has already returned to their property a couple of times and Kaleb is worried the 350 lb giant may want his “catch” back.
