On a lonely road in the Evan’s Creek Mountains, a car spotted a scared dog. The dog was so hungry that he became really aggressive and would not let anyone touch him. The dog was later given the name Bear.
The motorist took some pictures of Bear and posted them to social media in an attempt to gather some help. Amanda decided to help Bear straight immediately after learning about him, postponing her plans.
Amanda and her friend Dylan started the hunt in the hopes of finding the dog, despite her family’s warnings not to go since it’s dangerous.
They found the dog after many hours of hunting, but Bear was understandably terrified and did not allow anyone to get close to him. They tried luring him with food, snacks, and a host of odd tactics, but it didn’t work. As night fell, Amanda and her friend had to head back home, but they returned the next day.
After a few more fruitless attempts, they devised a fresh plan to draw Bear when they found him in the same spot the following day. Amanda made the decision to “play it dead” by lying down on the ground in an attempt to convince the dog that she needed help.
A few hours after Amanda had lain still on the ground, an event occurred that won the hearts of innumerable animal lovers worldwide.
Bear assumed Amanda needed help and proceeded to scent her for twenty minutes before making contact. After a while the dog got bored and moved on, but Amanda persisted.
0.
After a few moments, Bear turned and sat down by Amanda, as if trying to let her know he was with her.
A few more hours later, Amanda managed to gain Bear’s trust and persuade him that his intentions were solely focused on hers. Bear went with Amanda to the car, and they headed straight to the veterinarian.
After receiving care and treatment, Bear was chosen for adoption by a family shortly after he regained his strength. The dog now has a loving family and a dwelling of his own, so he is no longer compelled to live on the streets.
Bear’s attempt to assist Amanda while she was on the ground provides insight into the character of this magnificent canine.
Naturally, for her efforts to save Bear, Amanda deserves our deepest admiration and appreciation.

Boy didn’t stop kicking our seat during a very long Flight – Here’s what my dad did
Hi everyone, I’m Evelyn from Minnesota, and I have a story that will make you think twice before boarding a plane again. My dad and I were traveling from Alberta to Minneapolis. What started as a cozy and comfortable flight soon turned into a nightmare, all thanks to a little boy and his oblivious parents.
The Kicking Begins
About 40 minutes into our flight, a boy, probably around ten years old, started kicking my seat. At first, I thought it was a joke. I turned around and politely asked, “Hey buddy, can you please stop? I really want to enjoy my flight.” His parents shot me a weird look while the kid made a face, but I thought he got the memo.
Five minutes later, the kicking resumed, more relentless than before. This time, he was hitting both my seat and my dad’s. My dad, always the calm and composed man, politely asked the boy to stop as well. And he did… for about ten seconds. Then, it started again. Bam. Bam. Bam.
The Audacity of the Parents
My dad decided not to call the flight attendant. Instead, he reclined his seat as far as it could go. The boy, unable to kick anymore, started whining to his parents. The parents, instead of controlling their son, asked my dad to put his seat back up. “Our son should enjoy his flight too,” they insisted.
My dad politely refused. The audacity of these parents was beyond belief. They had the nerve to call the flight attendant on us. This is where things took an interesting turn.
The Flight Attendant’s Intervention
The boy’s father complained to the flight attendant, “This man put his seat back, and my son is uncomfortable!”
The flight attendant, maintaining her professional demeanor, turned to my dad. “Would you like to keep your seat reclined?” she asked.
“Yes, please,” my dad replied.
“Well then, we have no problem here,” she said, addressing the boy’s parents.
But the drama didn’t end there. The boy’s father was furious and demanded that the flight attendant make my dad put his seat up. The flight attendant explained that passengers are entitled to recline their seats if they wish. Frustrated, the boy’s father started raising his voice, causing a scene.
The Lesson
The flight attendant, seeing that the situation was escalating, called for backup. Another flight attendant and a senior crew member arrived. They listened to both sides of the story and then made a decision that shocked the boy’s parents.
“If your son cannot behave appropriately, we will have to ask you to move to different seats,” the senior crew member said firmly. “We have received multiple complaints about your son’s behavior.”
The boy’s parents, realizing they were outnumbered and outmatched, reluctantly agreed to move to the back of the plane. The boy’s father muttered something under his breath, but they gathered their belongings and moved.
As they walked past us, the boy shot us a defiant look. My dad smiled and said, “Next time, listen when someone asks you politely.” The boy’s face turned red, and he hurried after his parents.
Peace at Last
With the disruptive family relocated, the rest of the flight was peaceful. The flight attendants even checked on us a couple of times, ensuring we were comfortable. My dad and I enjoyed the rest of our journey, grateful that the situation had been handled so well.
When we landed in Minneapolis, we saw the boy and his parents again at baggage claim. They avoided eye contact with us, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction. My dad had taught them a valuable lesson in respect and consideration for others.
Reflection
This experience reminded me of the importance of standing up for oneself and others. My dad’s calm but firm response to the situation not only resolved the immediate problem but also set a precedent for how to handle such issues in the future. It’s a lesson I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life.
Traveling can be stressful, and we all need to be considerate of those around us. Hopefully, the boy and his parents learned that lesson too.
