‘I have to save my dog’ -- Michigan woman scares off black bear to rescue pup
GRAYLING, Mich. – Not many people have come face-to-face with a bear enough to understand how scary of a situation it can be. Heather Willobee said it wasn’t the first time she crossed paths with a bear, but April 18 was different. "But I also knew she wasn’t coming alone and that something big was right behind her.”A 300 pound black bear had tussled with Lucy and was chasing her home. Willobee said she was able to get Lucy inside and realized she needed to go to the vet immediately, but the bear was still outside. Once Lucy was in the backseat, Willobee turned around and saw the bear was back.
