One Canadian man claims that his guard dog is in cahoots with a local black bear, with the bear allegedly giving the dog deer bones to munch on in exchange for full access to the household trash. Though the dog owner has not yet witnessed the strange exchange, he has shared his suspicions on Twitter in series of posts that have gone massively viral online.
On May 8, Jesse Jordan took to Twitter to discuss his dog Brickleberrys (aka Brick) troubling new habit of accepting late-night snacks from a hungry wild animal.

Is the bear an illegal bear from Mexico:
Accepted scientific name: Ursus americanus eremicus (Clinton Hart Merriam, 1904)
Description: Medium sized black bear, adult males weighing around 90 to 180 kg and adult females around 45 to 110 kg.
Range: Exact range in Mexico is poorly defined but recorded in the states of Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo León, Zacatecas and Durango. Chiso Mountains in Texas, USA (including within the Big Bend National Park).
He would allow them into the backyard to hunt as long as he could eat their turds.
Bears are not stupid like Dogs ,LOL
It’s called “Dogtente”!
It’s like détente but with dogs!
so it was a commercial treaty!
They are also crossing the Red and Sabine River. They have been destroying deer feeders in E. Texas lately.
Yes, the cats had to buy their way in.
Your ‘Trievers at work?
Dog ain’t saying nuffin....
Smarter than the average bear!
One of our relatives often hunts for deer and other game in
Texas.
He has seen some to these bears, and they are different than our bears. He said the guides believe in shot, bury and hush with these critters.
"..eeeeyak"
I don’t see anything wrong with that. The dog is not giving away anything valuable, and if this makes them both happy, that should be fine.
Just take a video, if possible and share it.
I’m sure if the owner upped his offering to deer steaks, the bear would have to find another dog. On the other hand what’s a little missing garbage going to hurt?
I`ve heard of cash cows but this is ridiculous.
Bears are smart. How else would they come to accept Catholicism?
Our dogs and our neighbor dogs would bark at each other and challenge any trespassing. However, when they thought that we were not around, they would meet at the fence line and smoke cigarettes and chew the fat.
Sounds like a win-win situation, excluding the homeowner of course.
